[QUOTE="envisablepuppet, post: 7062, member: 585"] That drug was my difficult child's demon. I live in a very small community (under 2k ppl)surrounded by many even smaller communities. The biggest cities are 1 and 2 hours away from us. We are plagued with the stuff. Here we call it the meth epidemic. We have had ppl die here for and because of this drug. Now remember, this is very small town USA. We have community meeting, panels, and task forces trying to get a handle on it but to no avail it seems. Some of the kids here using this stuff are as young as 12 yrs old for pity's sake. This is just so heart breaking. When I hear of another kid I've known since they were in preschool is hooked on this stuff it just depresses me for days. If I were to list all the precautions being taken to protect property and all the new laws and regulations they have had to put in place here you would all be amazed. It's mind boggling. It's a nightmare. I've gotten to know this drug quite well I'm afraid. I can spot a tweaker pretty well now and here there are a lot of them to spot. How sad is that. My difficult child is a success story and there are others here in town that have turned it around but many are lost to it. I came back to the CD board because of her successes this time not her failings. By posting about her now I'm hoping it gives someone going through what we did a ray of hope. I owe that to a lot of you here because you gave it to me when I most needed it. I don't think you'll ever know just how much you did help me. Because of you, I'm still standing Lea [/QUOTE]
