[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 675251, member: 1550"] I think you'd get a better response on the Substance Abuse forum. Maybe a nice mod can move it there for you. This forum is mainly for younger kids without drug problems (although some younger kids do take drugs...what a world!) Can you get him into rehab? After he turns eighteen, you will legally be able to do nothing.It's hard enough at seventeen. Eighteen is when you have to hope he decides to change his life because it's up to him completely. Have you gone to Al-Anon? When my daughter was using, it saved my sanity. Literally. Also gave me good ideas, not how to cure her (I couldn't), but how to interact with her and how to take care of myself through the stress. If not, a private psychologist or therapist can be very helpful. I'm so sorry for your hurting heart. [/QUOTE]
