Your daughter is simply amazing. I'm glad she realizes she's in a "slippery space" and is ready for detox. She (and you) have had to deal with so much during this time, but you both have done it remarkably well, and it sounds like your relationship is getting even stronger.

I'm glad she could be honest with you...a very good example of both of you working hard on your recoveries. I wouldn't tell my dad if I were getting into stinkin' thinkin'. Although I know he would want to help, he has never learned about addiction (doesn't really want to) and it would send him into a panic. It wouldn't do either of us any good.

With your daughter, though, she knows she can be honest and you will support her, but will still let her do what she needs to do. Good job, mom.

Hugs and prayers!

Amy
