[QUOTE="2much2recover, post: 645578, member: 18366"] Yep, the social workers will lie to you and guilt you into doing things they say they don't have the resources for (when, oh when, did it become OK for people in these positions to lie to family - shakes head) Our lawn care people (we adore the whole family) went through this when their son almost died from a heroin OD. Some advice apparently worked out OK - try to remember when dealing with him, when there is something not quite right with his brain, there IS something WRONG with his brain. It takes time for the brain to beginning to function on a more (physically functional) normal level after going through the trauma of an OD. Try and have patience, even though he doesn't deserve it, because right now you really have no idea what you are dealing with. Give the brain time to heal, the rest is all just wasted breath and emotion. [/QUOTE]
