Hello, I am another member of the Mama Posse. My AS is 22 years old and currently in jail. He has battled with heroin since January of 2010 but confessed recently to me that he has been doing drugs since 18 and has been extremely unhappy. He had a job when he was 18 but also never had any money. We didn't experience him stealing from us until around March of 2010. We forgave him and got him into IOP after he detoxed. He relapsed within 3 weeks. It is a battle so my advice is immediately seek help for dealing with an adult child addict.
Pinprick eyes and change of behavior sound like opiates, which is so expensive, most of the opiate users change to heroin, snorting or smoking first but moving into using needles for the greater rush they get.

This is the LAST thing you want to experience so please learn as much as you can about opiate abuse, and do not give your daughter money. Hopefully she hits a bottom much sooner than my son has.
Keep reading, keep asking, we are a strong bunch of Mama's
