Thank you, I hope so too. It’s difficult getting help, but they need to accept it too.

Has he tried to get help ? People say the GP is the first call, they could refer him to his nearby drugs and alcohol service. I am staying with my son at the moment, he is 35 in July. He is on a detox for heroin at home. I live 2 hours drive away, so worry when we don’t here from him, and his phone is permanently switched off. I called 111, as he was quite sick, and they called an ambulance. He refused to go to hospital. Doing cold turkey at home is hard. I tried to get him a referral to a local drugs and substance organisation nearby, he refused to speak to them, saying he wasn’t in the mood, I will try again tomorrow. He was asking when I was going home, and I said I wanted to make sure he was ok, he said he’s ok. I feel he’s in denial with his addiction, I am at a loss at what to do.
