Nancy I have read all your posts, and I being a recovering addict can only speak for the addict. There is nothing you can do or say to your son that will make him stop useing,and if you forced him into a intervention well that would be a waist of your time and money, as your son would have to want recovery. What you really need to think about is your safety and what I mean by that is with your son being involved with the wrong people and him comeing into your home that is putting you in danger. Sorry Nancy but you need to put your rules down. And yes your son will have to hit his bottom and many addicts have to do it many times before they get it. My bottom was prison and I thank GOD everyday for that because if I would have continued on the road I was on I would have been dead. Also my daughter was headed down the same road I was on and she is only 22 yrs old so I have been on both sides if the fence and I had to do the tuff love thing and that was hell because I had to let her go and do her own thing there was no such thing as trying to save her she had to do it herself, today my daughter has been clean 3 months getting a divorce and back home with me and now I can be there for her.
