[QUOTE="standswithcourage, post: 91293, member: 3948"] Ant sounds exactly like my difficult child. My difficult child never wanted the help he was offered either. Last time he was in jail (June) I racked my brain to send him pamphlets, brochures and everything on rehabs and places to go after he got out. We told him he couldnt come home. But he made no effort to g anywhere and then blamed it on us again. I understand that there is not rehab in jail. My difficult child always tells me mom this doesnt help me - well what does? If you dont want thehelp you need and continue to break the law - then what? I guess they can say they are mentally ill but how many doctors does it take to try and help someone who only wants the pills he wants. I am just trying to think now that my difficult child is probably Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) along with me! Seriously, I think they should reevaluate him in the jail and come up with something besides he just a drug addict. I know addiction is a disease but it must go along with something else. I understand your frustration totally. I am right there with you. [/QUOTE]
