[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 551316"] Teree, Welcome and yes you have found the right place. I think all of us here are dealing with kids with some level of addiction. I know i am and i definitely understand and relate to your heartache, terror and the desperate need to help. I recommend you find a support group of parents such as alanon....i found a parents group and it has been a huge help to me. The hard truth, that as a parent is really hard to get your head around, is there is not a lot you can do unless he wants help. You did not cause this, you cant control it and you cant cure it. The main thing you can do is to think about how you enable him ( we all do this i think) and figure out ways tonstop enabling him. I think this is a process for all of us. It is hard and i dont think any parent should have to go through this. TL [/QUOTE]
