[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 244247, member: 1550"] Oh, you brought back memories! But your daughter is still young, Please don't give up. My daughter was 12 (yes 12) when she started using drugs, and 19 when she quit. And she drank, smoked pot, snorted meth (they crush them in pillcrushers), used cocaine and even tried heroin. Today she is a health freak who won't take an aspirin, is in college, and even quit smoking cigarettes. SHE has to want to do it, but if she wants to she will--she is still young enough that it's not necessarily a habit that she will not be able to break forever. Not one person here should ever give up, especially not one with a child who is only eighteen. She may yet see the light. My daughter's moment of truth was when she saw her friend with track marks up and down her arms and she thought, "That will be me one day." She didn't quit right away, but she did quit. We had to send her away from her "friends" so she could quit without her old crowd pushing her to go back. She still lives in another state, but it was worth it and I visit. I thought she'd end up in jail or dead, and neither happened. ((((Hugs)))) and hope to your hurting mommy heart. [/QUOTE]
