This may the unpopular. First off I know the person has to want help to get help but what if they are in so deep they cant even think straight enough to get help?

I am mad, I feel more should or could have been done. When the cops are called on your daughter who is high and running the streets naked how is she not a threat to herself? Or when she is found high squatting in a garage how is she just told to leave? A drunk would have been picked up. I spoke to the police multiple times and begged for them to call crisis if they saw her again but it never happened. I called crisis but never had an address. Instead I got the dreaded knock at the door, 2 police offers saying can I come in?. Her boyfriend who I gave his name multiple times gets pulled in for a few days and I would bet they never even spoke to him about my daughter's death, yet I am sure he called 911 but left the scene.

I just feel we should have better ways to help them. I know my daughter was in over her head and the addiction was too strong, but I also know she didn't want to die.

Maybe I am making no sense but I just wanted to get these thoughts out. Thanks for listening and yes I am in meetings and counseling but I also have a little boy who misses his mommy also.

I prayed, I tried to help then I walked away. I got the knock at the door today that no one wants. Not even 25 years old. I have had her son for months, I honestly don't know how to tell him. RIP my baby girl.

My husband entered rehab for alcoholism today, they said detox would be 1-3 days. Do they keep you very comfortable? He doesn't sleep very well, was nauseas at drop off. Just a concerned, worried wife here. I know this is where he needs to be.

She and her BF are living or sleeping in a garage owned by my deceased ex brother in law. His wife found her today, not sure if they allowed it or not but she wont call the cops on her. Do I just let it go , let her live her life that way until she's ready or show up with food and drinks? What about bringing her son to see her? I would have her father go in first to make sure she is not all whacked. Perhaps I am just wasting my time.

I have tried a few sativa carts, various companies. I never get energy, mostly it's more of a half in the couch high. Indica will knock me out. Looking for this uplifting, energetic effect that people talk of. I have super silver Thai #15 available close by right now or is there something better I should look for?

So my daughter is either on the streets or back to couch surfing. I do not enable, I will take her to eat if I see her, she lost her phone. The phone was my only enabling but I thought of it as a life line. She called last night from a stores phone to wish him a happy birthday. He is in my care for about 5 months now. I told her bad news about her favorite uncle passing, how it happened (overdose) and then I talked about her and her bf getting help. She said she would call me today to set up a time to get together and discuss further. Said life is really shitty, conditions suck. I am not a fan of her bf, I think he got her back into drugs but if they both want to get clean then I support it. Whatever way to get her to rehab is my thought. Any words of wisdom for me? Anything you think I should say to her? I know it has to be her choice but want to use this opportunity the best I can.. if she follows through that is and meets me.

Has anyone done this or had this done to them? My daughter is looking very thin, homeless, no phone, and on fentanyl. I am sure whatever money she comes across is used for drugs and not food. Cops were called, she was running around naked. I spoke with the officer and he said no to a 302 because she could hold a conversation and wasn't running into the road. I later found out she is using fentanyl when a family member allowed her to stay and cleaning up her mess he was rushed to the hospital. I am hoping they reported her but the family member is not responding to me or the partner on that. I know they want nothing to do with her at this point and thats totally understandable. I fear she wont make it, I know she needs to choose rehab herself, as her parent I just want to explore any and all options. I do under stand a 302 is for mental reasons but even the family member said she extremely crazy acting. I am looking into therapy for myself also.

Realtor here- I sold a home the sellers offered to transfer to the new owners if they set up an account and never heard back. They aren't moving in for weeks, if sellers delete the account will the new owners have an issue setting up? Whats the best way?

She had come in contact with her uncle and his wife, did some odd jobs for a few dollars. They fed her and brought her water, protien shakes. Well the place she was staying at with her bf they are no longer welcome. She has been camping out with her bf in this heat. Her uncle offered her to come stay the night without the bf but she is so wrapped up in him she wont leave him. They wanted me to come get her and lock her in my basement.. Um it doesn't work that way. She tells them they both want to get clean but I guess he has a warrant out so I doubt he can just check in to rehab. She knows she has a ride to rehab from me, I will get her what she needs to go. I do have her son and it hurts so much that she chooses this guy over her own son. I hope the guy gets picked up but who knows if she will even get help at that point. I do not enable besides paying for her phone which she cant charge anymore and I will buy her food if I see her. Could she be approaching rock bottom? I hope so. Just got word she lost her phone so I suspended service.

My daughter relapsed some time ago, she lost her job, then apartment, I took her son. When she was evicted we thought she would get help, that was even her plan. She is either homeless or couch surfing. Yesterday I saw her walking down the road, I pulled over and we talked a bit. She was in a rush because she was meeting someone but I talked her into getting in the car and going for food. She finally agreed, I kept the conversation light while, talked about her son, got her take out and headed back to the drop off area. About a minute from the drop off I told her when she is ready I am here to give her a ride to rehab and will get her any necessities needed for the trip so she has no excuses. I hugged her, told her I love her and said goodbye. She has been saying she hates her life and she's going to rehab soon for months now. Maybe she is lying, I stopped getting my hopes up. She does have a phone, I kept on I debated turning it off but left it on as a lifeline. She is looking not so great.

My daughter relapsed after 3 years, she is on some hard drugs. She was at a hospital (for other reasons) and they started to detox her and were due to transport her to a rehab the following day but when she walked out. They had banned her erratic boyfriend from visiting, he is most likely a user and was super persistent to get to her.

I may have enabled a bit in the beginning mostly before I found out she relapsed, I had co-signed her lease and was paying the last few months to protect my credit. I did make a deal with the landlady to end the lease early but still she had to evict her and change the locks, we moved her furniture and stuff and she still stayed and slept on the floor. I took her car away when I realized (I helped her buy it) and I took her child to keep him safe. I do still pay her phone, I cut her internet. I am debating cutting the service. It is my only way to contact her and I do have her son. She doesn't answer our calls or text back but certainly takes her bf calls. I just started meetings today of help but seem to get more out of this addict coach I follow. I know this is consuming me and truthfully it's because of my grandson if it wasn't of him I could walk away. Any advice? Cut the phone, leave it on?

I have 2 adult kids on my plan, if I suspend her service on the website is there a fee? Can I do it for a few hours? Or as needed??

And is there a way I can block a number from calling her from the website?

Daughter is an addict, she was just a few days through detox when she walked out this week. My hopes were up and now I am having a hard time. Looking an online meetings and there are so many I am not sure how to choose. I cant do in person, I am raising her 4 year old (which breaks my heart for him he is missing her) Is there any recommendations for starting out, I don't know how to pick but I think I need the support.

I got my hopes up. she was admitted to the hospital for other things, but agreed to stay until they get her stable enough to transport her to a rehab. Her bf was trying to see her and he was banned for his erratic behavior a few hours later she left.

I got sucked back in with hope. I spent a few hours with her prior it was the most time I spent with her in months. I was kinda nice to have that time. I have been raising her son for months, I guess I’m also sad for him and I’m running out of things to tell him. He is 5. I guess I’m just sharing, but if anybody has any words of wisdom i’m all ears.

Hubs took his first pill yesterday, didn't eat anything with it and has felt ill ever since. Not sure he will continue, this morning he is still feeling ill. How long could this last in his system?

Would like to honor my late mother, brother and father for a baby boy. Linda Anne, Damon Eric, Raymond Guy. Can be one or all or be creative but prefer Damon to be included. Raylen is already taken.

I totally understand you cant force someone into rehab. This person seems to be close to rock bottom. Recently evicted, fired from job, no money, car towed and cant afford to get it out. Been hanging with some guy couch surfing and he must be helping financially. I do not offer any money, I will take her for a meal or bring her food. Is it best to continue offering support (ride to rehab, emotional support) for them to get better or just walk away and let them look for me if they want help. She has been to rehab 2 times already, the second time she was clean for years.
