My Son Has a Cocaine Addiction. I Don’t Know What to Do Anymore.?
Question by Camille H: My son has a cocaine addiction. I don’t know what to do anymore.?
These past 2 years have been a mess. I found out my 16 year old son had been experimenting with cocaine when we got a call from the emergency room saying he had over dosed. I thought he had quit after that but last year he was arrested for cocaine and alcohol possession and we payed a lot of money to get him help. We have been dropping him off at drug addiction anonymous meetings but I later found out he had been skipping these classes and his friends would pick him up to get high instead because he was arrested again and I kicked him out after that which I regret till this day because a month later his friend called me to tell me he had overdosed again. I took him back home and he swore he’d stay clean this time. The year was hard for all of us because we were struggling with financial problems and my son had failed his senior year but he was staying clean… at least I thought so until his girl friend came to me because she was very concerned about him because he has been doing cocaine more than ever. She also told me he has been doing it since he was 14. I’ve tried taking him to classes but he refuses and i recently found out he has been stealing money from me and my husband. My husband has threatened to kick him out or call the police on him but I have to beg him not to because I know that would be the last thing any of us need. I can’t help but to blame myself, too. I had my son when I was 16 and I struggled with alcoholism and his father suffered from an opiate addiction. I don’t know what to do at this point. I want my son to be safe but I’m starting to lose faith in him ever recovering..
My son is 18 now and every time we offer our help he says since he’s an adult he will leave if we try to help him. I have no other options!
My son is very smart. He failed school because he didn’t try but he is a very smart boy. He has a way out of everything we offer… he threatens that if we call the police he well tell them that we beat him because my husband layed hands on him 1 time after coming home high. He also says we can’t prove he’s still into drugs because we never see him do cocaine. It’s a very stressful topic but I’m desperate to help him… there is just no way how to.
