[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 693888, member: 1967"] Moving home is taking a step backward for those in recovery. A 24-year-old man should be working and providing for his own needs and wants. I can't think of a single case on the SA forum where moving home worked out. My daughter really wanted (and still wants) to move home. When we had our family weekend at one of her inpatient stays, the therapist said that the recommended follow up was definitely not moving home. He said that our daughter needed to learn how to be a sober adult and that did not include moving back to her childhood home. I wouldn't have bought the pills either. He can always go to the ER if the withdrawal gets bad enough and they will find him a detox to go to if it is life threatening. I cannot even imagine feeding his addiction by getting him more pills. After that, I would tell him to find a rehab and/or sober living house where he can work on recovery and find a job. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
