[QUOTE="missy44, post: 348636, member: 6201"] Well, I won't be waiting 2 weeks. Last night, about 3am, my difficult child came home, left all of our doors unlocked and went down to our basement and passed out. My husband and I got up around 3:30am, noticed the unlocked doors and I went down to check on my difficult child. I couldn't wake him, he was in a compromised position (i won't get into the details, I'm still tortured by it) and I thought he was dead. I panicked, called my husband, he was able to wake him just enough to get him to his bed. He was talking nonsense and then passed out again. I went through his coat and found 3 empty marijuana bags. I can't believe this, we told him he could stay for 2 weeks until he found someplace to go. I proceeded to take his house key and left him a note. Of course, I still have to live in the real world and go to work. I can't wallow in my self pity and stay home. The note basically said, you will not be getting your key back, if you are home immediately following work today we will give you some options. If not, you are not welcome here period. We have decided on one option. He immediately goes to a place in our city called "options for change", requests a drug assessment and requests residential treatment. There is a place about 2 hours from here thats covered by our medical plan. That's it. Until he gets treatment he must live elsewhere. He cannot stay here while he's waiting for treatment. I just can't do it anymore. My two younger children are visiting with their grandparents right now, thank goodness they weren't home to witness what we did. Any thoughts, I'm open to suggestions. Oh, and did I mention, I'm exhausted. Mentally spent and I just feel physically ill. I'm also worried that my note suggested he has options, i hope he doesn't think that means he can stay here. I should have been more specific. Thanks everyone... [/QUOTE]
