You may be able to have the crime expunged. You may be able to secure a pardon from the governor.

Drop the drug habit because that will only make existing problems much worse.

What happened to the guy who attacked your female relative? Did HE ever get convicted of anything?

And did you have your own lawyer or a public defender, and did you plead innocent or guilty?

If you can, start thinking about this point in your life right now and where you want to end up in the future. I hate to say this, but the best way to get yourself out of this mess is to accept where you are and be positive about finding a way out. Figure out exactly what you need to change your current situation and discipline yourself to take the necessary steps to getting where you need to go. Unfortunately you have to sacrifice the temporary relief you get from drugs for the bigger picture–what do you want in your life? Despite everything you are going through currently, there is a way out. Stay positive, and let the past mistakes shape you into the person you want to be. And know that mostly everybody in their twenty’s leads a confusing and mostly ****** up life. At thirty you begin to act on the wisdom you gained. All you have to do is begin to go a different direction. Even Jesus Christ didn’t start teaching until he was thirty, same with Buddha. They were lost until then… Don’t give up. Live.

I am not quite sure how things work for you in your State, but as far as I am aware, discussions with your doctor are normally confidential. I think you need to work at getting help for your addiction problem.

I found this which may be useful. They will probably be able to find you confidential help if you are worried that your probation office will pursue you for using drugs.

“National Substance Abuse Helpline
800-DRUG-HELP (800-378-4435)
A confidential helpline for help with questions or concerns related to substance abuse.”

You clearly have a sense of honour and duty to your family. That is a strength to be proud of. Unfortunately, you made a wrong decision in how to deal with a situation and broke the law. That does not make you a bad person. We have all been angry at times, all done things that we might regret or that we believe to have been right at the time.

The mistakes we make in life help us to become better people.

Drugs, however, will only destroy you. They will lead you to lose your sense of honour and family duty, will lead you to betray the ones you love, lead you to break the law again and again.

You must stand firm and fight the drugs. Hold on to that good person inside of you. He is worth fighting for!

Each person has a Karmic living energy which is relative to other persons on the planet. You will feel a tendency to spend this energy quickly, violence & crime are a quick way of spending it. Other forms of expenditure is through enjoying pleasure.

Try to regulate your life with regular habits getting up at a fixed time, morning walk, regular breakfast etc. Start volunteering for charity organizations. Avoid wrong type of friends. Slowly you will acquire a healthy respect for other people and your tendency to resort to crime will come down.

Remember your every act of violent behaviour or crime takes away a part of your karmic energy making you vulnerable to more shocks. Some day your stock will reduce and you will be left to confront with fate testing your fighting skills by pitching you against your worst fears.
