Hi halo20

I’m sorry you have all the worry and stress of a son with addiction

We all live with that feeling of doom

I think it’s because we wonder how much more harm can our sons/daughters do to themselves with out consequences

There is always hope that they will stop

Has he tried rehab or any groups

In England there are groups for families of addicts

My son is a binge drinker and is ok while i am with him but the effects of one of his sessions are very scary

I have found it hard to get help but he has started counselling and is taking antidepressants

Ultimately we have no control over what they do and at the moment I have no control over him keeping me here

My advise is to take care of yourself as best you can as all this will harm you if you don’t

Do you have other children

Try to read Thresas thread on here

It my help

Keep strong

Love Joanie xx
