I don’t know whether to feel comforted by the fact that so many other parents are in the same position as me, or distraught by it. My son is 17 and a half too. He admits to cannabis use but i strongly believe there is more to it than that. he is so thin, barely eats, never sleeps, only wants sugary foods. His moods are extreme and his latest “best mate” is a 46 year old man who lives alone and doesnt work. I’ve tried going to his dad for help, but he is completely blind to what is happening and told my son to ignore me as i’m clueless. Ive tried my GP but was told they cant help unless he stops using drugs. What are we supposed to do? My heart goes out to you, because like me, you want to do more than read pamphlets and talk, you want to do something or get some help and it’s just not out there. xx
I hope your son wakes up and comes to you for help. I hope you have someone there to support you xx
