More Questions on Drug Addiction
What, as parent, should I do?
My daughter was released from a 10 day stay of detox and rehab for Xanax and pain medication.
She has a 4mo old at home (she lives with her father and I)and her boyfriend (child’s father) lives with us also.
She was acting strange and appears to have formed an attachment to one of the young men who was also in rehab.
She ignored her boyfriend and child to spend the evening texting and going on Facebook to talk to this young man.
What, as a parent, should I do or say to influence her actions or should I do anything at all?
I feel like the hurricane is here and I haven’t had time to shutter the house.
She has had all this help and I am struggling to catch up.

OXY ADDICTED SON
My son is addicted to oxycontin. He went to a rehab clinic for 30 days and came out clean, however, I believe he has had on and off days.
He has stolen money and jewelry to support this habit, he lost a good job and is in debt beyond belief….this has created a lot of tension and stress in our family and I do not think we deserve this.
If he leaves our home, he will have no where to go and I worry something terrible will happen to him…when we confront him about this there is denial and lots of crying and then apologies, I am frustrated and depressed because of this.
What can a family do to overcome this?

Sister Is a Drug Addict?
I need help for my sister who is 33 and is DRUG addict.
She took up a loan at the bank to make home improvements at our family home in Soweto and we think she has used up all that money on her addiction and now the house is just standing there incomplete.
She was off drugs when she was pregnant with her kid but she is back full-force, she still has her job but does not really go there as much.
She lies, her good personality has changed, she is angry all the time and when we ask her about money she always puts up a fight, we where raised by our aunts and they where good to us and she is just tearing up the whole family we don’t know what to do anymore.
Please give help and advice on how to help her kick this thing out of her life for good before it’s to late.

My boyfriend is addicted to crack.
My boyfriend is addicted to crack.
He has been to a treatment center and has also worked there. When we first met he said he was clean.
He wasn’t. He had just gotten high a few days prior. I was under the impression that he was ok but just needed a little more encouragement and support than the average person.
We’ve been together for 7 months now and he has relapsed 5 times. He says he doesn’t need to go to go to rehab again, that there isn’t anything new he can learn from going. He will begin to attend N/A meetings and hopefully find a good sponsor.
I’m scared to death of our future. I’m haunted by the lies he’s told me to make me think he’s out doing something other than getting high. I felt helpless and unloved during the hours and days I was unable to reach him.
The last time he relapsed was only two days ago. He told me the day before that he was called to do a moving job. He left early the next morning and I was in touch with him all day until 8pm that night. The last thing he told me was I’ll be home soon.
He didn’t show up until 3:45am. When he came back, I cried to him and felt nothing but despair and anger and every possible emotion that’s associated with this type of act from someone you love from the very core of yourself.
Of course he couldn’t say much. With a blank stare and absolutely no emotion that I could tell, he said “I’m sorry.”
The next day he explained what happened. He had an appointment with a jeweler in the morning. He had put down a down payment for an engagement ring! And on his way back he gave in to an urge and went to the projects to score his rock!
He wasn’t even in a bad mood, all he had to do was think about it and tell himself that he could just continue lying to me!
Completely cheated, deceived, manipulated and broken-hearted, I am still standing by him. Hoping, praying and fearfully waiting for him to become a better man.
Someone whom I would one day, proudly wear a ring for.
