Hi Kerbear66, I’m so sorry you are going through this. I’ve only just come across this forum and read your story. I’m not sure what has happened to your son since you posted but I strongly recommend speaking with your gp about getting him admitted for addiction treatment. I discovered my partner was addicted to meth for a year. I didn’t understand what was happening and thought he was having a nervous breakdown. Eventually his behaviour became so bizarre, paranoia, delusions etc that I became concerned he would be a danger to himself. To cut a long story short he did become a danger to himself and he was eventually sectioned and spent 6 weeks in a mental health facility. It was extremely traumatic but it did help him and he is off the drug and trying to rebuild his life. It is important that you act soon as meth is a terrible drug that can do real damage. Even the police can come out and do a mental health assessment and have him sectioned if needed. It sounds drastic but he will thank you for it in the end. He won’t help himself as the drug has taken hold. There is a lot of information online about meth addiction and lots of places to call for advice. I sincerely wish you luck.
