[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 219760, member: 1550"] Wow. The drugs aren't helping him either. I'm so sorry. My daughter used drugs and she told me that parents usually don't know the extent of the drug use. Kids may admit to pot, but if your son is busting holes in the wall, it's likely more than pot...can you give him a home drug test? Just spring it on him? His excess sleeping is a red flag almost screaming that he's taking a lot more drugs than pot. My daughter used to sleep all day/be up all night. Turns out she snorted speed and cocaine and took downers to make her tired. We didn't find any of this out until after she quit, so take it seriously. Your son won't get better, no matter what is wrong, if he abuses drugs or alcohol. medications won't help him if he takes other stuff. You may need to get him into treatment for dual diagnosis. You only have a few years yet to help him...at 18 he is legally his own boss. I wish you luck and hope you can find the right help for him. PS--If he were my kid, his cell phone days would be over, and he wouldn't be taking driver's ed anytime soon. My daughter DID get her license and she got into a serious car accident. [/QUOTE]
