[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 672717, member: 19522"] Hi Rosie, I am very sorry for all of this. It is terrible. Your daughter has shown full force the picture of what she relayed to you of her fears of what she had become. It is hard Rosie, to see our d cs like this, harder still, for their younger siblings. I took my son to counseling, so that he could express himself. It was helpful for him. I went also, because I realized this was much more than I could handle. I needed to know exactly what I was dealing with. Counseling helped me. It is hard to see our parents know this of their grandchildren. Having it out in the open is a good thing, you can rally your family to support you. Of course you know by her actions, that this is not true. It helps to learn about meth, and what happens to people who use it. I have not experienced to this extent, what you are writing of. I do see the tell tale signs in my daughter. We have several meth addicts in our neighborhood. Most folks here in Hawaii, where the use started, can tell you they have family members who are hooked. I am so sorry for this happening to your daughter. The folks who posted are correct, she is a danger in your home. You have a son, who needs to be protected and nurtured. I would take steps and get a restraining order. People on meth, especially those who exhibit this extreme behavior, are unpredictable and violent, as you have seen. There is not much you can do, if this is her choice. I am sorry to write this. This is where we are with our daughter. We tried to help her, but her actions in our home were unacceptable. It is as if we are not her family anymore, her family are her meth using friends, and even boyfriends who mistreat her. Meth makes some people psychotic and violent. You are devastated Rosie, because this is your daughter. Someone you love deeply. It is a big hole in our hearts, when the reality hits. Learn all you can about meth, to strengthen your resolve. If she is at the point where she refuses to go to rehab, there is nothing you can do. I am sorry to write this, but it is true. I hope she will rethink this. Please take steps to protect yourself and your home. Please get help for your son, who must be in shock after seeing his sister in such a state. It is very hard for them. My son is still reeling from the things he has witnessed. I pray for you and yours Rosie. Take care of yourself. Keep posting and sharing, there is much to learn here from others and they have much to learn from your story. Most important, it is good to know you are not alone with this.
