Whats he on if you dont mind me asking? Coke? Sounds like it

[danman83]

I know what you are saying my mum is exactly the same with me. I guess all you can do is be there for him and make him aware. There is a lot of help there. I find listening to podcast on recovery stories help me. Plus the is a guy from america. Who has his own podcast called .. the alan charles show.. he talks about his 24 year coke habbit and how he beat it. Theres always hope so dont give up.

Hey rob.. you are right. Your son must want to quit himself. You can not force it on him. Im struggling through a cocaine addiction my self. Im doing my very best to stop. But its just so hard. I hate the stuff. I wish i never even attempted to take it.

There is a good app you could reccommend to him called pocket rehab. Its were addicts and ex addicts talk, and help each other out. Its great, plus there is an emergency button that you press if you feel like using and it puts you through to another addict or ex addict and they talk you round in not to use. It does help alot.

Does your son want to stop then?

[danman83]

Thats normally the case.. being used for something. Hopefully he gets sorted in there and come out how he use to be.

Hiya oliver.. im really sorry to hear about your mum. Im struggling through a coke addiction and i am 36. But taking this to numb the pain, beleive me.. it will not work. Coming down off cocaine gives you the biggest depressesion for days and suicidal thoughts. And with whats happend with your mum. You do not need any of this going on in your head. You may not get this now.. i never.. but after more use.. it will get worse and worse.

If you want to stop. You need not to hang around with people who have. No alcohol.. alcohol makes you crave cocaine. Delete dealers numbers, and maybe talk to someone about your mums death. This is obviously just a coping mechanism, and your young and have your future ahead of you. Dont let this stuff ruin your life mate. Change your friends. Change your lifestyle. And if you dont go college or out.. start doing something. I wish i was in your shoes and i could start afresh.

Do your mum proud.. cocaine when it grips you. Ruins lifes mate. You still have time. So just cut it out any way you can.

Well thats good to hear. Tbh seratline is helping me alot.. have u been to see your husband?

[danman83]

Does he want to stop? Im the same as your son. And ive had enough of it now.

[danman83]

Hey hox.. good to hear from you.. ive booked all week off and ive been getting up at 4am decorating all this week.

Gyms been hit and miss.. same with the reading but ive been tired at night time because i work nights. But im gonna start again next week. I have a meeting at my drug help place soon. I went down yesturday. And im feeling a lot better.

I split up with my gf last oct. But im back with her now. and i just got into a really shitty situation. But im doing my best again now.

Hows everything at your end?

[danman83]

No there is not any bad withdrawls from what i know. But i could be wrong. She really needs to want to stop though. Are you sure its just cocaine she is having?

Ive just gone to my local drug help place were i live. And i have to go to some meetings. Ask her if she is willing to do that.

[danman83]

Cocaine makes you suicidal on a comedown. Its awful and you can feel like this for days. I just think you need sit down and talk amacably. ( think ive spelt that wrong lol)

[danman83]

You are in the right place..so dont worry.

Im the same as your daughter and im doing my best to stop taking cocaine. Its an awful and crafty drug.

If you want her to stop, she has to want to quit herself im afraid. Just make her aware of the dangers for now.

Plus dont give her money if its feeding her habbit. If she needs food for example.. just buy her some. Feel free to ask anything

[danman83]

The best way to approach him is talk, and suggest help if he needs it i guess.. one thing i hate, is when my misses keeps going on at me. When ive had it. But shes had it with me aswell. But shes right at the end of the day.

Cocaine is a very slippery and crafty drug. I wish i never looked at the stuff!! You go in every pub and some one is using it.

And thanks for your kind words.

[danman83]

Has he admitted he has coke ? A lot of people now who have alcohol.. have to have coke as well.. this is main trigger in using cocaine. Alcohol makes you crave coke.

In relapsing on cocaine. You have emotional.. mental and physical relapse.. and they start in that order..

Causing arguments and rows and dissapearing, could be emotional relapse. Cocaine makes you do these things as an excuse to get it. But i dont know the ins and outs if he is using or not

[danman83]

And yes.. it sent me spiralling out of control.its a dangerous drug

[danman83]

Gods honest truth.. i dont know if you know anything about coke and how it works. But it causes arguments and your brain plans ahead in getting it and sets you for a trap, and i think deep down i wanted to split up so i could go out more and have it.. thats the best i can explain it. I could be wrong. We was arguing alot aswell. But i have 3 kids and been together 11 years.

Were back together now. And im decorating again to keep busy. And thanks
