Catching Up & Herion Addict Parent
Haven't been here in some time, but one click brings me back to caring about all of you. Kind Eyes, you are something amazing.
Someone wrote about a heroin addict: and she is choosing to live it.
When it comes to heroin, there is no choice; they are consumed with the need; there is no other existence for them. There is nothing in their life but the next fix. When I first came to this forum, a mother posted about keeping her purse under her pillow to keep her daughter from stealing money. I thought this will never be me, not my family.... Wake up, you are the parent of an addict - you didn't create this, you didn't teach him this, you can't cure this, but it is in your life - and you need to hide your purse, your money, your everything - because remember, even the most lovable, remarkable child, can become an addict. And their focus is on the next fix......
