Hi everyone sorry I havnt posted for a while.
I feel so sad reading these stories and what everyone is going through and the frustration. Lindyloo the frustration of being turned away from the dr un believable but at the same time so beleivable!
My son is now in a residential place its not rehab but as close as we can get it’s full of young lads whose lives need turning g around and they need to be drink and drug free so for the first time in years my son is drink and drug free and has been for 6 weeks. He is even doing his driving theory so for the first time in a long while doing something positive.
But as we all know the road to recovery is long and rocky and I am under no illusions!
I often wish I cld do something somehow to raise an awareness to government about our issues and so young people have intervention before these addictions take hold. In my opinion that is what is needed and is a mental health problem.
Schools shld have mental health specialists. Sorry I’ll get off my soapbox.
Lindyloo has your sons dr ever referred him to local drug and alcohol services?
