[QUOTE="Allan-Matlem, post: 42164, member: 10"] Thanks for sharing ' So, remember the anger. Hang onto the anger, because you will need that to overcome the desperation of the situation. You will need something to balance the heartache of dealing with your drug-addicted teenager. So, hang onto that anger and remember it when you need strength. very interesting - in regular parenting anger can be negative as you look for quick fixes in desperation. I think it is that your are angry at the kid , not about the situation. I agree the situation has to bother one , upset one so it does not become a non-issue. Is only anger a source of addrenaline and could anger distort our thinking ? Allan [/QUOTE]
