Hi Hayleealice,

Sorry to hear your story, it must be very difficult for you, being on the Forum is a great place to start.

From my own experience with my Son (cocaine and alcohol), when he went into Rehab, they were not allowed their phones for the first week, then after that they were only allowed for about 3 hours at night, obviously different places have different things in place. It is usually for 28 days and they usually start doing the 12 steps of recovery while they are in the rehab.

Do you have any idea where he is or anything about the place where he is?

All I can say about addiction is that it is hell, sorry but I have to be truthful, they lie, which is what I found the hardest.

My Son tells me that you have to become selfish when you are in Recovery, so that you look after yourself, perhaps that is why you have not heard from him so often.

I have put up with it for 10 years, and I wouldn’t wish it upon anyone, which is very hard when you love someone and especially now you are pregnant, must be very hard for you.

Keep chatting on here, there are some really nice people with excellent advice.

Look after yourself and take care.
