[QUOTE="lovemyson1, post: 681756, member: 16643"] Hi worried. I am sorry for your sons bad choices and unhealthy lifestyle. And I'm sorry you are going through this. It's such a helpless feeling. No, I haven't heard of Caseys Law. However, if i did, I still don't know if I would go through it. It's a fact, unless the addict wants help, truly wants help and to change their life, they won't. No matter how desperately we want them to get better, it has to be their decision and even then it's so difficult. I'm not trying to be negative but it's the reality I've learned having a son addicted to heroin for the past 4 years. I agree when you say, it's worth a try to get them in and clear their heads so they have a chance to change their lives but it's a small chance. So, if you are willing to accept that it might not work even through all your efforts, then you should do it. We are all desperate to help our addicted children. My son is in recovery and has been clean for over 6 months but he still struggles. If there's one thing I've learned through it all, it is that the addict has to truly hate the addiction and what it has done to their life, they have to want to change more than anything in this world, not because they HAVE to but because they WANT to. I hope and pray your son wants this as much as you. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
