Do you ever fully trust your kid again?

For those of you whose kids blessedly recovered, did you ever get back to trusting your kid or is this fear and worry a permanent part of life? My daughter seems to legitimately be doing well now, but I've thought that twice before. To be fair, she just started trying to stop last October. She's in her third PHP after three stints in rehab and a brief time in a wonderful sober living situation. That was when I really thought things were on the way up, but they weren't. She had an issue with her phone after doing an update, and I immediately thought she was lying and sneaking off somewhere. I'm just wondering if it will always be like this or is there some blissful time when I won't jump to the idea that everything has gone to hell again.
