I am looking for some sound advice from someone who has a loved one abusing heroin. I have tried to help my son for the fast five years, and we are still where we started five years ago. I have tried to help him the best that I can but also understand that he has to want to get his life back. He has tried inpatient, but has left after l week. He has tried the methadone program. But was also using while enrolled in the clinic. He has been to a 30 day lock down facility, and he has also been to jail for 3 months. The courts have given him more than enough chances to get his life back on track. He has also been to detox and a sober house. He was discharged from the sober house because he had a dirty drug screen. He has stolen from us and I am ready to give up on him. I love him more than life itself and I believe I have helped him as much as I can. I can not live this way anymore and he was told to either get into a long term residental treatment porgram or he is out of our house. This breaks my heart, but I have had enough. WHY do I feel so guilty? I would love some advice from someone who has walked in my shoes. Or someone who has been through what my son is going through. My marriage is suffering and I have a daughter who is in college and is also suffering because of her brothers addiction. Lisa
