[QUOTE="luane, post: 633213, member: 18252"] Dear Albatross, I read your post last night a wanted to share a couple of thoughts with you. I am sure you've heard all this before, but I hope you may get a little speck of peace from remembering this. My son's old psychiatrist, who specialized in addictions, told me that the success rate from enrollment in compelled addiction recovery programs was equal to the success rate from completely voluntary enrollment in addiction recovery programs. So the sad fact of someone never really wanting to enroll, and possibly being forced to by a court of law, etc. has the same chance of success. With my own son, thinking that maybe he'd never want to, but may get a DUI and get forced to. Just knowing the success rate is the same, gives me hope. The other thing I want to share is, I heard an interview with a former child actor who had been clean and sober for 10 years. He went through rehab 5 times! 5 before it worked. FINALLY it got through...there is always hope. Take care. Luane [/QUOTE]
