Hi,
DP and I are in our 30s and due to infertility problems we're hoping to adopt.
We have no other DC and earn 100k plus so should be able to afford a comfortable life for prospective DC.
Before we make any applications to adopt, I'd appreciate some advice.
Around 5 years ago DP suffered from depression and had a moment of madness in which he stole cocaine from his then housemate and had a one night binge. He confided in his doctor about what had happened so it's likely to be on his medical record.
He's not proud of it and hasn't touched the stuff since. Depression is also much better and we think it was probably caused by a toxic environment at the time.
Will this all be taken into consideration if we wanted to adopt and if so, do you think we'd be wasting our time even considering adoption?
