Question by gregusedupfully: My daughter is addicted to drugs, it is killing me. I appreciate all of your help, THANK YOU?
My daughter started using codeine when our dentist prescribed it for her. I found out she has been buying it or trading something for it from a person at her school. She is 17 years old, I know that i do not have much time left to help her, she has told me she is moving out the moment she is able too. I think my daughter is addicted to drugs of other types also, i have been finding things in her room that are suspicious, white power on the dresser. little pieces of plastic with burn marks on the ends. broken pieces of metal with burn marks on them, some type of a glass ball with a hose wrapped tightly around it that goes into one side and a frickin butane torch in her room! I do not know what this stuff is, as fast as i throw it away she finds, buys or makes more of it. when I go through her bags she has pills wrapped up in plastic, she tells me they are vitamins but i know they are not. I am thinking about forcing her to have drug tests but i do not want to lose her and i have run out of options. AA did nothing, i think they made the situation worse. teen narconon was a joke. i am so frustrated!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sadly, there is not much you can do for her at that age. You can always be there for her when she needs you. You can keep telling her how much you love her.

If you are able to “force” her to get therapy and treatment (I do not know if you are able to legally) then I would do that. It maybe very hard to do emotionally, but in the long run you will have saved her.

However, that being said, if you are not able to do that, all you can do is let her make her own decisions, even the terribly wrong ones. Hopefully she will get so low, that she will realizes what she is doing but sometimes love of a parent or family is not enough for them.

If you could learn to detach yourself from her actions and just be there for her with unconditional love, when she needs you, that is all you may be able to do.

Answer by med student
sorry to hear of the situation

keep her away from the source

if she was my friend / daughter, i would keep her in a padded locked room so she didn;t have access to the drug

a bit severe, but itis better than her getting the drug

Answer by Mrs.Timberlake
well ive never been on meth or done it but i know people who have, and the only way to really help it is to take her to a rehab center. she may not want to go, but if she knows whats best for her she will do it.

Q&A: My daughter claims she is on Aderall. How can I test her to make sure she is not on methamphetamines instead?

Question by Sam: My daughter claims she is on Aderall. How can I test her to make sure she is not on methamphetamines instead?
I understand Aderall has emphatimes in it which on regular urine test it will show the same way as meth. Is there a test that would show the two drugs separately?

Any advice for a daughter with a vicodin-addicted father with no desire to go to rehab?

August 31, 2010 - 9:56 am 4 Comments

Question by rachelk828: Any advice for a daughter with a vicodin-addicted father with no desire to go to rehab?
My father keeps returning to narcotics. Him and my mother own a business and he’s killing it with the abuse. Without the business, we can’t afford the house, which won’t sell in Michigan’s horrible economic climate. I feel trapped between trying to make him understand the situation and finding a way to plan out how to sell the house and not go bankrupt. Help!

Question by deedeestnsn: My daughter is a drug addict. I was able to do an intervention and get her to Narconon.?
Now I need financial help either a sponsor who can pay the program up front and I pay them back, or ways i can possible finance her rehab. I taken out a loan and put what they require to place her there but now I need to be inventive on how to afford to keep her there and heal. She is 19 and has been living on the streets of colorado, got into legal problems and now she is on the road to recovery. If anyone can help me find an individual, organization or ideas it would be deeply appreciated.
