Well I just don’t know how much longer I can take it. My son just lies and manipulates continually. He claims his methadone is insufficient to ‘hold’ him and is buying it on the black market to keep himself comfortable. Apparently his Substance Misuse Team are looking for offices so he can’t get an appointment to increase his methadone. He tries to get £70 off me at least 3 times per week, even though he is working. His Dad was an alcoholic, now I’ve got a drug addict for a son, I’ve been truly blessed. Ten years of suffering for me and I’m getting older and more vulnerable. I’m tempted to shop him when he goes off in my car to buy heroin. How can I get him out of my life because I realise I can’t stop him doing drugs or sort this out for him. It’s time I thought abut me.
