[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 764966, member: 4152"] Dad…your post shows a father who deeply loves her daughter. The despair when they are using, making no sense at all and living on the edge is so painful. The comments snd advice already provided have been excellent. At my worst, I did also get help from Families Anonymous. I like their literature. I would have kept going to the meeting, but it was a long drive at night on a crowded expressway and I decided against it. But I read their literature and it really helped. I noticed your spiritual beliefs. They have helped me personally on a number of occasions. Let go and let God. I had to learn this the hard way as we can’t make our children, and this goes double for adult children, become aware, want to do better and actually do better. It’s up to them. Another support group, one that is Christian based, I believe started by a social worker, is called “Hope for Hurting Parents.” They too have good literature. Plus on line groups and meetings, primarily in churches. Sending good thoughts for much peace. You’ll find much support here and a group might help too. This stuff is very hard. [/QUOTE]
