Mature advice only please. I am serious. I need honest mature opinions to this problem. I am trying to save my marriage. I have a big problem. My husband is a recovering alcoholic. He has been sober from alcohol for almost 6 months. He is also addicted to pills, mainly xanax and lortabs. He does good for a while, then relapses. I understand this is one of the hardest addictions to try and stop on your own and I am trying to give him all the support I can to help him through this. The problem is… his mother keeps giving him pills behind my back. He finally confessed it to me and now I am stuck with a hard decision to make. What to do about his mother. Do I cut her out of our lives? She is on parole for drug charges herself as she is an addict.. Family traditions huh? I am so angry, I am considering calling her Parole Officer explaining my situation and informing him that she is still doing drugs and every time they call her in for her drug test, she has been using a detox to pee clean, and the shampoo for the hair follicle test. I know this because she told me this. She has already peed dirty once and she denied it and I guess the PO let it slide. Should I go to her PO and tell him what I know to get her out of our lives and away from my husband? Shouldn’t I do something to keep her away? I need help… Please
I have talked to her repeatedly about giving pills to her son and the last time I talked to her, she said, “Well you know he’s never going to quit taking pills”, so I told her, “Not if you keep supplying them he won’t” and she left mad. She knows how I feel, but she doesn’t care. She has been giving him pills since he was a young child, only then she gave him Valium so he would go to bed early so she could stay up and party with her friends. I know this because my husband told me this. He and I are being honest with each other at last. I hate making my husband feel like he is stuck in the middle as he is going through a hard enough time trying to kick his addictions, but his mother has been an enabler to him for so long now. I told him I don’t want her coming to my home that she is not welcome because I can’t trust her to support him or me in our marriage and his recovery. He and I have been going to a church for a year now to find help through the Lord and trying to get our lives straightened out. The devil keeps sending people in our lives trying to mess things up. And on top of all that, his mother decided to come to our church this morning. But not alone…she had brought along a woman who my husband used to go out with and has recently “befriended”, and she knows I can’t stand her. She is trying to cause problems in my life. How do I put a stop to it
My ex i know has been on cocaine before i know this for a fact but yesterday his mom told me he was restless and he kept moving constantly while asleep and talking loudly it almost looked like convulsions( she taped it) well when i went to see him he had huge pimple like sores or spider like bites all over his forehead he says he thinks something bit him but he was home all morning not only that but there was a huge bump at top of head. Please help me as he is my sons father and i don’t want to see him destroy himself
also he has been picking at it constantly nonstop and when i first got there he could barely look at me straight in the eye his eyes would roll back i just think that this could be meth and i want to know for sure since his parents don’t help or wont because they dont want to ruin their image
My teen is 17 yrs old. I kicked him out recently cause he has made a change in the last 3 months. All he wants to do is talk on his phone during all hours of the night. He is falling alseep in the bathroom in the morning when he goes to school. I have talked to him since it started 3 months ago. He is smart and his grades have dropped. He has became a slob.He is the type of teen that never wore his cloth twice. Now he wears the same clothes over and over. Dirty socks and underwear in his room all over the place. Like i said before he was always a clean teen. He gets offeneded for every little thing. In my home when u have a chore u have to do it. I told him that he could’nt go out until he shapes up. I gave him a talk a few times to see what’s up. He says he is stressed cause I am telling him what to do, so i said there are rules and if u dont like it u know what to do. Get out! He is also eating more junk food than ever. Is my son on some drug? He has always been a good kid and a home kid. I think I gave him too much freedom and look what happened. He knows about drugs and alcohol. He had the talk with me and my husband plenty of times. I am not a drug addict or alcoholic. My husband either. Should I take him back when he knocks on my door? Do you think he is on drugs? This kid is a kid that respects others. He gave me back talk that I have never seen in him. I am concerned more about school. Had a 85% average and now it is 72%. That is a big drop. From getting b’s to getting d’s and maybe a C somewhere. He curfew used to be 10pm and he used to come at 11pm alot. I let him slide on that, but I can’t do this anymore. I was reading about the signs of drug abuse in a teen and he has more than 3 of them, but does that mean that he is using? If he cooperates with me I will give him a blood test, if not then he cant come to my home. I just want an adult who has a teenager to give your opinion on it. Teens dont respond to this cause I dont want to here your ignorant comments plz.
My seven year-old son was born with a cleft palate and autism, and now is possibly being diagnosed with epilepsy. I’m worried that drug use earlier in my life may be the cause of his problems. I was clean for six months prior to his conception and have been ever since, as well. I used marijuana, acid, meth/speed, some coke, and very little heroin. Does anyone know if these drugs can mutate your DNA and cause problems for children?
My bf 2 years ago overdoses on cocaine and now has been clean ever sence I have a 1 year old by my sons father and now me and my new bf are trying to concieve.we have tried for almost 7 months and nothing I haven’t got pregnant.could his over dose or cocaine use 2 years ago affect use now?
He has been clean for 2 years I’m not gonna judge his past like he don’t judge me.I help to keep him clean
I have been able to locate a list of all over the counter medications that will cause a false positive urinalysis for methamphetamines. I need to find a complete list of all prescription drugs, and any other household of farm products that can cause such results if they get into a persons system. This data may be the only thing that saves me from loosing custody of my son for something I have not done.
Just for those who have left accusatory answers, allow me to reiterate. I have not done drugs. I am asking this question because a false positive ua caused my son to go into Foster Care, and I’m trying to prove my innocence so he can come home. This bullshit caused me to miss his first b-day. So if you know of anything that may cause a false positive, let me know. I’m trying to compile a list of anything I may have come in contact with so the lab can cross check and prove my innocence.
My nephew who is only a few months old makes me rethink my sober life (I’m 19). When ever I see him or my sister and brother in law I want to not drink or use drugs. I only use at night. But whenever I see them I always think of getting messed up that night. Like today, I’m really drunk but I’m also constantly thinking about earlier today when I wasn’t and they were talking to me about being sober. Just the thought of what my brother in law has gone through (he lost an older brother to drugs, his younger brother is addicted and his mom is also addicted) has made me want to not drink or use drugs. But I have been since an earily age. Why is this situation making
me want to be sober at all times? I know I only get fucked up at night but hearing his own struggles with alcohol and his familes has made me feel bad when I get drunk or fucked up..what would do this? Seeing my nephew makes me want a kid…even after seeing the bullshit he does to them. I would think it would keep me away from wanting kids…why do I want it more?
