[QUOTE="Southern51, post: 720634, member: 22330"] Thank you for the replies. I don't think anything that happened in the army is the reason he started using drugs, even though he's been through deployments. We talked a lot about what happened over there and he seemed to be able to process it in a healthy way. He started using after he got out. Why, god only knows. Not having any way to help is driving me crazy. I tried several times to talk to him about it (never gets anywhere), made lists of rehab programs, made phone calls and plans and nothing comes of it because he's just not willing to cooperate. I even flew there a few times because I thought talking to him face to face would help, but that didn't work either. I am absolutely stunned by the parents here who manage to get through it for as long as 5 years or more and stay sane. It's like watching a deadly car crash in slow motion. I know what's coming, but I can't stop it. I've decided I'm going to try and look for a therapist on Monday. Take care everybody. [/QUOTE]
