daughter My 22 year old daughter came home and told us she has been addicted to meth for nearly 4 months now. She wants to get clean and never use again. She wants us to help her. How do we help???? I am so clueless!

Re: Help for my addicted
daughter Hi Mom and Welcome to KCI. You are at the right place to learn and get support. I am glad your daughter has come to you for help. First , do some reading- Very informative site by Loraura This site explains the whys and wherefores of the brain and meth. Helps to make sense of the senselessness to come. SfJ How a meth addict thinks and feels as well as SfJ how to quit meth Very helpful tips there. There is life after meth and we do recover - despite what the media would have you believe. You have come to the right place. Good to have you

Re: Help for my
addicted daughter Welcome! Bring your daughter along, this forum has her name on it. Families recover together, make this your recovery family. Your daughters good intentions NEED a foundation to support them, the OBSESSION to use is too much to handle without help. 4 months IS in deep! We're here for both of you. 24/7 Tip...Recovery 101; Avoid any and ALL people, places or things than can get us high. Or...History WILL repeat. Guaranteed! And ignore the "stats" There is ONE valid statistic...your daughter.

Re: Help for my addicted
daughter Hi and Welcome. This site will help you immensely. My son will be 20 next week and has been clean over a year. I thought I had lost him when he was on Meth. It is a serious problem and horrible drug. 4 months isn't very long, hopefully she will recover quickly. Learn as much as you can.

Re: Help for my addicted
daughter Be glad that she came to you for help.... Without her wanting help it would be impossible to get her to quit. Since she has a desire to get clean ...... That is the first thing she has to do ...admit it and seek help. I am so glad your daughter came to you and asked for help in her recovery. I have a 24 year old daughter in prison for manufacturing. She lost 3 kids because of her addiction. But the difference was she was in denial. I was here ready and waiting but she had to want that help and ask for it. What state do you live in?? I know there are people here with links to lots of sites for help in recovery, Stay here and read, read, read and post all you want . Try and get her to come here. There are many here that have been in her shoes and yours too Mom. They have recovered. Keep coming back you will find lots of love and support right here. I am sorry you are going through this cause I know the pain it causes a parent. But you are not alone. Be glad your daughter admitted her addiction and came to you for help.......I wish mine would have. |

Re: Help for my addicted
daughter Hello Frogwoman, I'm Bobbie, I came here about a little over a year ago looking for help for my daughter too. She is now 21, You are so lucky to have her come to you and ask for help and that in it self is wonderful. Our daughter has been up and down, but I'm hoping and praying that this year she will make the right choices and live a good life. You made a good choice coming here too, their are so many people who will help you and there are other link's too with help, there's Ma's Place and also Crystal meth recovery treatment support help, so check those out too. Good luck and if you need a mom to talk to e-mail my box. Hugs

Re: I here to help you
I'm shocked. ...it's a miracle. If she wants to quit, that's all that need be. ....Do you know, I've never seen a mom want to help a kid quit that already wants to? these pages are FULL of: "she won't quit, she won't listen, she's dying in front of me, she's stealing the TV" ...stuff like that. you are truly blessed, and the best way to go, since it's easy like this.. is don't waste your money on rehab, let her rejuvenate in your care, and send her to N.A. or C.M.A. .....or I can recommend an excellent addicts board that's very supportive. she has to do it herself. .......you can't help. you can give her a place to stay.. ......but she has to find a new group of friends. they should be speed freaks. ....just the non using, recovering ones. because she will have thoughts and ideas, she'll need someone to talk to for. educate yourself, educate her... .......there will be phases in this journey. we're always here. |
