Hi. I am new to this forum. My 29 year old son is a drug addict. I also don’t know how to treat. I have given him the mum wings treatment but believe this is not the right thing now as it hasn’t worked. The crisis team and mental health team kept saying I was only enabling him. He has psychosis which is a heartbreaking thing to see. I have made the huge decision to stop enabling him and let him hit rock bottom. Don’t know where that rock bottom is going to be but, will be there when he falls. Drugs or alchohol start as a choice. It makes them ill so it’s a mixture of both. Yes, they still have choices and help but can only overcome if they want to. As loved ones, we will beat ourselves up and blame ourselves. Cry endlessly and forget our own happiness.
