[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 647175, member: 1233"] You did the right thing to ask him to move out. Don't let him move back in, even if hubby says it would be okay. One thing you MUST remember about anyone dependent/addicted to opiates like heroin: If he is normal, funny, pleasant, he is high. If he was not high, he would be sick, sweating, with horrible stomach cramps and incredible pain. So all those times he was reading to the kids and seeming so normal and pleasant, he was high. I am a pain mgmt patient due to more than 3 serious and painful health issues. I had a very sudden severe migraine 2 nights ago and was so foggy minded that I skipped 2 doses of my medication. I woke up very suddenly and was incredibly sick. It was awful. I managed to get to my medications and felt much better in 15 min, but it took 2 days to fully get back on track. Heroin is stronger than what I take, and I do not snort or crush or inject my medications. His work even faster and stronger than mine. This means they wear off faster and the withdrawal can be even more brutal and rapid. So I KNOW, for a cold hard fact, from personal experience, that all those nights when he seemed so normal and pleasant, he was HIGH. For him, high IS normal. He just isn't sleeping it all off because he either didn't take a large dose or he took other medications to keep him up and alert. Please remind daughter in law that son should be paying child support to her, and that it should be a BIG and IMPORTANT priority to him. There is no reason he should have a nice apartmnt and she and the kids should be close to homeless if the relatives were not housing them. She NEEDS to insist that part of his paycheck should be directly deposited into her account to help support his children. No matter what, they are his responsibility, not just daughter in law's.
