 Thank you so much for your stories. I will keep all of you and your families in my prayers. For you parents, I can only imagine what it must feel like to let your children go. My daughter is almost 10 and I know she'll be introduced to this drug soon enough. It scares me but, I just hope by watching what it has done to my sister and her dad (he's a prescription drug, alcohol, etc... addict) that she'll make a stand and turn away from it. I have to believe at this time that if it did get ahold of her that I could stand strong. I can't say for sure though.
I was reading some of the other posts and was wondering what you felt was too much help. I know you guys said no help at all, but are there special circumstances? Do we help her get to the Department of Social and Health Services in our area to get help going to rehab? Or do we let her get there on her own? She doesn't seem to follow through with the appointments she has had except for those that got her food stamps.
My feeling is she has two feet; if she wants it bad enough she'll walk. It's not like she has a job. This is where I don't know if I'm being too hard. It's just that I have watched her manipulate my parents and everyone else for so long I don't want to give in to her at all. I don't trust her sincerity. I've watched her laugh after telling my dad a lie and he believed her. She said he was a pathetic dumb a**. My parents are a joke to her, I feel.
Thanks for listening. God Bless you all. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.
