[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 485652"] I basically agree with kimno..... you can't control her recovery in any way, it does have to be hers. However I have mixed feelings about talking to the sober house. I think with our recent experience with my difficult child I think if you felt comfortable I would call the sober house and ask them about the klonapin. I would do it in a way where you are just asking information..... my sense is that klonapin is not a good drug for addicts as it is addictive, although I am no expert. I know my son has been prescribed seroquel to help with his anxiety and it does seem to help and it is not addictive. I like the sober house my son is currently at... I talked to the director as he was going in (naturally because we are paying for it) but he gave me his cell and commented that we have to work toether and communication is key... so I do think with people newly in sobriety, they need a lot of support to deal with the temptations.... yet at the same time as parents we need to balance that so we are not in the middle and trying to control their recovery. Not an easy task. TL [/QUOTE]
