[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 416713, member: 59"] Too tired, I have been where you are. The night my difficult child came home at 4 am and urninated on our carpet in the upstairs hallway because she thought it was the bathroom was one of the worst days of my life. I spent the next hours finding her an outpatient treatment center. They said she didn;t need detox but in the end she did because she only lasted two days as outpatient and then entered a residential program. I hope you can use this anger to get the energy you will need to find her the right treatment. I was angry too when we had to bring our difficult child to the hospital years ago because she told school friends she took 9 advil and wanted to kill herself. Thje hospital personnel were so nice to her and I was so angry I couldn't even look at her. They are trained to do that. We are the mom's and our hearts break and we are hurt and scared to death. You are beginning a journey that will require a lot of strength and courage and determination and hope and in the end it will be her battle to win. But she is young and she needs you for support right now. I will be thinking of you. Today, in just two short hours, I will be driving my 19 yo to a sober home for at least six months. She relapsed once again and was living on the streets or with friends until last week when she finally decided she hated that life. There is always hope, don't give up. Nancy [/QUOTE]
