Hi Family:
difficult child had her most recent relapse approximately 2 weeks ago. I thought that when she signed her self into detox it was because she is learning to "treat " her problem, even though it might still occur........NOPE......she was staying at "also relapsing friend's house" and friend threw her out..... :smile:
Detox was the only place she could find a bed :nonono:
Well, at least she didn't call me....Is that progress?Or am I crazy? :hammer:
So, here we sit, 4 weeks to my wedding, difficult child is idling in a sober house, she is attending 6 day a week treatment :bravo: But I really think it's only because she has to. Not one of her "sober" friends has made it past 1 year clean and very few to 1 year....It's depressing and disappointing. Why does this 12 step system not work for so many? I have such a hard time accepting that this is the only answer, yet it works for so few. I mean, I know you have to "work it" for it to work. That kind of commitment is rarely found in our children......they oppose commitment and consistency, so how is this ever going to work???? :hammer:
I'm sorry for the rant....just feeling a lot of things about the "cure".
