<p style=”text-align: right;”>My son has been addicted to crack for 10 years now and I’ve seen it all.</p>
Firstly you need to get him away from your mum as he will completely destroy her. He will manipulate and bully her with his lies and cover ups and she will think it’s all her fault and he will make her believe that. He will take everything she owns and sell it to pay for crack no matter how much you think he wouldn’t do such a terrible thing… He will!Does he want to stop? Will he go to CA meetings? They are amazing and there is so much support but he has to want to do it. That would be your first step to get him to a meeting

I have been going through this with my son for nearly 10 years now. On and off (mostly on) Ketamin and constantly on crack cocaine. I have tried absolutely everything I’ve blackmailed and bribed and screamed and shouted and thrown him out. I’ve called the police and had him arrested and I’ve even more or less tried to pay him to stop but he’s just getting worse.
He started going to CA/AA meetings which were fantastic and he had a sponsor then he relapsed He had another sponsor who was really great as he had also been addicted to crack so really understood but a couple of weeks ago he gave it all up again and has refused to go back saying he can do it alone and that I have been brainwashed by the meetings.
I feel that he simply doesn’t want to stop! He begs for help and says he can’t go on and desperately wants to stop but now he can’t seem to go more than a few days. If he hasn’t got crack then he’s got ketamin. A couple of weeks ago I took the most horrific videos of him on ketamin and he hasn’t had it in the house since as he agreed that he was dangerous and I wasn’t safe… I doubt that will last though
I’ve got control of his money and his bank account but still he manages to get drugs. He was due home around 4.30 today from the gym but it’s now 8pm so I know exactly what he is doing snd doubt he even stepped foot in the gym
He ruins my life every single day but he simply doesn’t care all he cared about are drugs. Two of his best friends are dead one died quite horrifically both due to drugs but still he carries on
I’ve now simply accepted that there’s no hope at all whatsoever
Please get out now while you can. My son is addicted to crack and I wouldn’t wish the horrors of it on anyone. Your BFs ‘now and again’ use will soon be regular because of the powerfulness of the crack addiction. You will end up with no money or belongings he will take it all from you. Please please leave him.
There is still hope for you
We are 8 years in to this addiction and I have now given up all hope I just want to die and then the misery of his addiction will all go away
