My 26 yo son is the addict in my life. He was shooting heroin for 5 years.
That's how long it took him to hit rock bottom. He went to jail and got
clean from it. He will always be an addict.
I'm glad your here to share and I hope you continue coming to sr.
It's a great place.
The only thing left to say is, if you've only been seeing him for 3 months...
your d*mn lucky.
Some of us have been dealing with an addicted loved one for many years.
My advice...
Don't stay to try to "fix" him. Only he can do that, and remember the
3 c's:
1. You didn't cause it.
2. You can't control it.
3. You can't cure it.
Keep coming back and read around. The more you know, the more you'll grow.
Hugs,
