[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 723049, member: 1550"] I hope he means it. My concern is the all day sleeping. My daughter swore she was clean, just tired when she slept all day. Unfortunately, she was on drugs. I dont remember if your son uses benzos, but if so....be diligent. You can not just quit benzos anyway. That can kill you. For benzo addiction, and addiction to Xanax is very fast, the person NEEDS medical treatment or it can be fatal. There is no cold turkey for benzos. Be very cautious. They promise us the moon, but are they serious? If they are serious, can they do it? I was fooled several times. I wish you luck, but be very careful. Keep your money and valuables safe and lock up any medication you have in the house. Dont trust him one wit. I would not let him use your car or "hang out" with friends. He can do family time. If you let him hang out at all, he will be in temptation's way. Your house/your rules. You dont have to give him the car or let him hang out while he waits for a bed. Substance abusers should not be in cars by our endorsement. Ever. Dangerous for them and others on the road. We should not contribute to car accidents by our addicted kids who whine to drive. It is more loving to say no to that. Good luck!! Hugs! [/QUOTE]
