No we shouldn’t. I’m trying to find out what went on for him to kill himself. I’ll possibly never know but it won’t be for want of trying
I been wondering about ghb it doesn’t show up in tests
There was only cocaine paracetamol and alcohol in his system that’s why I’m puzzled. Half a syringe was used
Can I ask anyone who might know. My son had a couple of syringes of a clear fluid in his house when he died. Any idea what it could be. I know he used cocaine but wondered what this could be
Thank you. No one understands the lives we lead except the family of another addict. It is hell on earth but it’s the dealers and the big money to be earned that ensures our children stay trapped x
This is so familiar. Why do we do it because they are our children and we love them. I threatened to walk away many times but I could never do it. I love him and you love your son. That’s why even through all the shit he puts you through you stick by him x
Yes I relate to that. It took me a while to see how bad things were and when I did I didn’t know how to stop him doing what he was doing. He was in to deep x
I know it’s heartbreaking I wish I had an answer for you for all of us but I don’t know. I couldn’t help my own boy. I go over and over wondering if I’d done things different would he still be here but I don’t think he would.
There isn’t any right or wrong my son died I didn’t fully practice tough love. If I had I think I would have lost him sooner I wouldn’t have known what was going on in his world. I don’t know what’s right or wrong but I’m not sure tough love is the way I’m really not
Well done for getting off drugs amazing stuff. You have my total respect I recently lost my 29 year old son to drugs so I know how hard it is x
Thinking of you and your boy. I don’t know what to say except I am well aware of the horrors of addiction and the evil people who peddle this shit not caring who they hurt. Punishments should be much more severe. Please keep us updated on your son
I lost my 29 year old son in June this year your words fit us perfectly. We don’t say the thank yous. The I love you’s. We don’t appreciate till it’s gone. I don’t doubt we all meet up again one day and I’m sure your mum and dad knew how you felt without needing to be told xx
I don’t know what it is with the nastiness. My son would get like that. I look back over our messages and he could be horrible but I came across as nagging. I see that now but when we are in their middle of this chaos you get tired of it so so tired. I agree it is a choice they make but also a Illness that permeates every part of their body and mind. These substances are evil and the people who peddle them deserve really harsh punishments for the misery they cause. I read everyone’s stories and all but a few pieces of their lives it could be any one of us. God help our addicts and us
Up and down to be honest, sometimes I can pretend he is still just down the road and then I remember and it’s gutwrenching. I read all the posts and remember this was how our lives were, I read back over messages where I am constantly nagging him and getting no where. My life is quiet now, no texts asking for something. I miss him so much, I hated seeing him suffer though and he was suffering, those people would have never left him alone. I question if I could have done things differently, I still don’t know the answer to that. I know I loved him and he loved me. That’s all I do know
Everything you say takes me back, there is no easy way out. It doesn’t matter what we do we can’t help them. Addiction is so evil it not only takes our loved ones but hurts the rest of the family. I know people say it’s their choice but I think by the time they are addicted their choices are limited. I look back now and rip myself apart with what ifs. What is i had cut him out of my life…..like professionals told me to……no I would never have forgiven myself. You are doing right love him, tell him you love him but protect yourself. It’s so easy to be drawn into their chaos. The one thing I know is my son knew he was loved even when I had to try to be hard when he made his choices.
