[QUOTE="Origami, post: 670772, member: 18099"] Wow, Tired Mom, what an anniversary--so glad your son made it through the overdose and is doing better. I think my son was seriously trying to quit the heroin several times after his first relapse, but now it seems like he thinks he can "maintain" a certain level of addiction and still be functional. And he has managed to hold it together for quite a while now, but unfortunately it seems to be catching up with him. I so hated to see him give up his job since it's not that easy to find anything when you have three felonies on your record. So I try to keep the worry in the back of my mind and not in the forefront. It would be easier to not worry if he didn't have a wife and two kids in the picture. We are very fond of his wife, and she's a trooper, trying to keep afloat in this uncertain situation. We're fond of our son, too, for that matter, but have mixed feelings since it seems like there's a different side to his personality that is selfishly concerned with the drugs. My daughter-in-law told me he spends hundreds of dollars every month on heroin, which of course could be used for the family. [/QUOTE]
