I need help

Thanks guys. I was just over there today before work and his anxiety and stuff is getting real bad. I think it’s starting to settle in his mind the reality of what is going on. I feel so bad cause I can’t do anything to help you know. So I’m there and taking care of whatever him and mom needs before I come into work. But he is hanging in there we are slowly start to reintroduce food so that is always a plus. Just need all the finger crossings and thoughts I can get in the next couple days for him

Surprise I’m still here man it’s been a long time!!! I’m happy to say I’m sober off the methadone I’m a year and then some without it!!! You guys was huge in my comeback I just have so much going on to get back here all the time. Health wise I could be doing better apparently I have something going on that no one has been able to figure out yet I’m pretty sure my heart was ruled out and good so that’s a plus but the struggle continues thank you guys so much I will do my best to get back here more often

Please, please, please call your doctor. Not doing that got you into this trouble.

Congregation on 98+ days. Unfortunately during recovery, life does not take a break and continues to challenge us. It is during that time you need to rely on your support system and tools you have learn during recovery.

@reese1 mentioned staying strong for your dad, but you also have to take care of yourself. The best way to help your dad is to stay healthy and clean.

Thought are with you and your dad.

Is there any nurses that will happen to see this or come across this please message me o have a couple questions about what’s going on I would like to pick your brain thank you in advance

Hello , I just recently , Thursday had a meth pipe fall out of my sons pocket. He turned 28 yesterday....turned into a confession . He has been thro an awful separation , had 2 children doesn't see them anymore , 4 and 6...his wife left him for a much older man. He has been thro a dui an accident with a deer 3 weeks ago..came home with a 40 yr old gf..homeless she is..who I found out was on meth and fenatyl..I did not think he was. I am shook. The stigma with drugs is quite overwhelming. His sister wants them gone. She says they will steal , the and destroy what life I have left and my health, which is frail. I tried being tough they slept in a cold truck in minus10..any advice..anything.I've even had the police call me as they feel he needs a conversation....

You're in a tough situation, being there for your son, not being an enabler and taking care of yourself.

Few suggestions:
- The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration website has helpful information, including "How to Help Someone You Care About"
https://www.samhsa.gov/find-support/helping-someone
Look for an Al-Anon or Nar-Anon meeting in your area. It is a support group for family and friends of people who have a substance abuse problem. It is OK to go to an Al-Anon meeting for drug abuse problems, it is not just for alcohol problems. Maybe your daughter (if an adult) could go to a meeting with you.
https://www.nar-anon.org/
https://al-anon.org/
Seeing the police have reached out to you, ask them for advice and local resources.

As your daughter suggested, you need to take care and protect yourself. Set boundaries. If you have valuables in house, make sure they are locked up.

Does your son want help with his drug problem? Is he willing to have an drug / alcohol assessment or seek help?

It is hard to help someone who does not want help.

Hey guys!!!! Yep still here haha. I’m going through it dad is still alive he’s very slowly declining he had decided to stop chemo and just go with it. His spirits came up a little bit but that’s about all it’s hard to watch him decline. Doesn’t help he has to be on all these drugs to keep the pain at bay. I’m still clean I’m at 1 year 7 months and 10 days. I’m holding on to it tightly. The mother of my children who I have been with for 7 years has told me that she isn’t in love with me any more so I have that to add to all of this. I’m doing my best to save it she is the light of my life and I will do anything to save us. I thought I’d check in with you guys have a good day and more importantly love one another with all you have and hold on very tightly

I have found if I truly love someone I want was is best for them even if it’s not what I think I want.

So far when I can manage this everything seems to work out even more the love I feel for the other person never leaves me.

I think humans need to love even more than they need to be loved.

I’m sure there is a biological reason for this, just haven’t check yet.

I hope you live in peace in good health all your days.

I would go to the emergency room right now. This is not a good combination~ Good luck.
