    Hello.

    I wish you all help and support and you are not alone.

    I am thinking and praying for you all.

    My daughter was 12 months clean, living a fantastic life, now relapsed.

    Should I spend another fortune on rehab or walk away, I am desperate today.

    I know you all are too.

    God bless you all

    Helen

    Hi D

    Thanks for replying.

    I did speak to them and all seems true. Man I spoke to had a negative attitude towards my daughter but other staff all kinder.

    I’m waiting for Manager to ring me next week.

    Are you able to say which rehab your son was at?

    No problem if not.

    This forum might not be the appropriate place.

    Thankyou for listening x

    Thanks so much for the replies, it really helps to think there is someone out there.

    My daughter did 11 days in rehab and last week wanted to stay extra, things were going well, the plan was set, then they messed up her prescription and seem to have bullied her out saying she is a troublemaker and not welcome to stay. Is this normal after taking more money off me for her to stay longer and 2 days later telling me she has been trouble from the start?

    Sorry ???? to hear your distress. Many of us on here have children with addiction problems. If your son won’t get help, I would suggest you get help for yourself. If you engage with any local help available, support groups for the family, it will help you and it may encourage him into support.

    I suffered for years without talking to anyone, you must get help, I hope your son will realise that soon ????

    Sending you best wishes (p.s. I once rang the samaritans and poured heart out, they gave me some phone numbers for extra support) ????

    Thanks for the invaluable support, it really helps knowing I’m not alone and I’m just sad so many of us are struggling with our children’s addiction.

    We are the hidden and I wish we could get the help and recognition we deserve for the caring we are doing for our ill children, take care of yourself ????

    Laraine, thanks for your post , I really feel for you, this situation is so heartbreaking for us parents, we are the hidden victims of society’s scandalous drug problems. The upset and rage we feel is the result of being ground down for years by a hopeless situation and our children change into people we don’t recognise who hurt us endlessly.

    Please take some time for yourself and continue to get support on here.

    I have found some comfort knowing I’m not alone in the suffering ????

    Feeling rotten forcing my daughter into emergency accommodation with the authorities but what else can I do?

    She has abused me for money for so long, stolen the TV, I dare not let her sleep here again, but I feel terrible.

    She is trying to get housed with the council now, ringing them, has left it late in the day but if not I will be paying for a travel lodge room again, I wish I felt better after a good cry but I feel worse. Hope everyone out there is coping OK. ????

    Hi Bella, glad you have reached out for support, we are all in the same boat here, struggling with our loved ones addiction.

    I’m feeling so sad and low today just like you.

    My loved one is my daughter, she also can’t see how she is losing everything in her life.

    I hope you can stay strong and put your son first ???? enjoy him and give him as much love as you can ❤

    Daughter has been home asking if she can stay here again if she gets stable but had to say no.

    The cycle continues every time she returns, she’s gone off now to try and get a cheap phone, get somewhere to stay, talking about rehab if she’s not stable in a month………

    Booked into a travel lodge tonight so she has a roof over her head.

    I’m feeling so sad and desperate for her but maybe I need to go through this to distance myself and maybe that will help her in the long run if I’m not her safety net?

    I’ve spent over 10 years trying to keep my daughter safe and stable from being on the streets, however, this weekend it’s a case of telling her she has to leave. It goes against everything I want and I know she won’t be safe, but she has stolen our TV this weekend to sell for drugs, she has threatened to kill me, tells me she hates me, all because I refuse to give her money.

    My partner of 20 years says he cannot live with her under our roof anymore. We are ordinary hard working people, desperately trying to live an ordinary life, go to work every day having had no sleep because she sleeps all day and causes us problems all night.

    I really feel like I don’t want to be in this world any longer.

    I’m so sorry, I feel the same, my daughter has also been lost in the nightmare of her addiction.

    Please take care of yourself and I am thinking of you and living through exactly the same, you are not alone, we and so many others are going through this ❤

    Hi js54

    I just wanted to say, I am thinking of you and let you know you are not alone.

    I also have a grown daughter who is an addict and I’ve been through a decade of trying to help her get clean.

    Take good care of yourself, your health, both mental and physical and know you are 1 of many of us struggling and we all understand. ❤
