[QUOTE="diana71, post: 623315, member: 17553"] Your story is so similar to mine. My son is also addicted to the synthetic marijuana (spice or K2 or whatever brand he can get). I can't get him help. He even agreed to go into rehab and I took him there but the insurance declined paying for it because it is a legal substance in Texas where I live. Can you believe that?! I have kicked him out several times but he just breaks windows to get in. I have had so much stolen from me it isn't funny. He is on probation but I don't think he has been going. I have tried calling his PO but her voice mail is full and she doesn't answer. I have called 3x a day for two weeks to get her. The stuff is highly addictive and I have watched my son go through the withdrawls from it twice and it is bad. Shaking, sweating, anxiety, body aches. But I can't get him help unless I pay for it. I have tried asking him to go to NA meetings and he agreed to go to one and I told him I wanted proof he went and he came home with no proof and a bunch of BS lies! My 16yo daughter is threatening to move out if I don't throw him out and so is my husband. But every time I throw him out he just comes back. I know I have to throw him out for good and if he comes back call the police. I wish he was in jail, that way I would be able to sleep at night. The K2 will make them black out and do horrible things. I am scared in my own home just like you are so I feel your pain. If anyone knows any suggestions on how I can get my son help I would love to hear it. I hit brick walls every time. Although he doesn't want help. He tells me I am crazy and that he doesn't do any drugs or the K2 stuff yet I find the wrappers all the time and he will be up for days and then crash for a day. He was also doing heroin and then quit but the other day I found 2 needles under his mattress. He says they are from before and I can't prove it one way or the other. [/QUOTE]
