Representative Patrick Kennedy said today that he felt much better after almost a month's treatment for drug dependency in the Mayo Clinic, and that he was looking forward to resuming his duties. But he said that he continues to suffer from mental illness that leads to addiction, and will need help from a support group to avoid a relapse. "The key to recovery will be a small group of people who will watch over me," he said at a televised news conference that was accessible via the Internet.| Might be easier on your recovery, Mr. Kennedy, if you found a less stressful job to engage your mind and energy. And your constituents might benefit from having a full-time member of Congress. Just sayin', that's all. |
