Your story makes me so sad. My son is a meth user too. It got to the point that he wanted help and he went into rehab because he wanted to. The detox was hard and the therapy to discover his demons was hard but seems to have been so worthwhile. He came out on Saturday 7th November and has been clean for 46 days so far. He has just returned to his own life and I am praying that he stays strong and uses what he has learnt to stay clean.
Until you daughter hits total rock bottom and cries for help, there is little you can do. I have leaned this from group family therapy. Its so hard as a mom to just watch and see the destruction, but you just have to wait for that day when it comes, the final last resort of going into rehab.
Join a support group, speak to others in the same boat as you, it really has helped me. I truly feel for you.
With love and prayers

I really feel for your situation. I have a son with a drugs problem and felt that there was no light at the end of the tunnel.
If I could ever even slightly give you a little advise, find an AlAnon meeting support group to attend. It will feel a bit strange to attend the first one, but after that, you will feel the help and support from all the other people who are going through and experiencing what you are going through will give you a new found strength to carry on.
My prayers are with you that you havent given up on the real man who is still there when the alcohol is’nt.
I also read a book recommended to me by a supportive Councillor and that really helped in changing my thoughts and actions. Look on Amazon at Get your Loved Ones Sober. This was such an insite.
I really hope you get through this tough time. You really are not alone.
