[QUOTE="recoveringenabler, post: 516088, member: 13542"] Nancy- I am so sorry. I am no expert in this area at all, but I have heard therapists, trained in addictions and recovery (in my Codependency recovery group) mention more then once to those parents whose kids are substance abusers, that once they have some recovery, each time they relapse, the recovery "messes up their highs." My understanding of that is that relapse is the way it goes quite often, but the addict enjoys the highs less because they have some recovery under their belts. Now they know too much. I think what Sig said is really true, but I get how disappointing and frustrating it is for you. I can imagine how horrible you feel right now, having gone through this before. That part I know about, personally. I am so sorry. Sending you lots of nurturing thoughts, kindness, blessings and hugs. [/QUOTE]
