[QUOTE="scent of cedar, post: 74095, member: 1721"] Hmmm.... I came back to read my own wonderful advice and realized I sound like an angry know it all. I apologize, StandsWithCourage. Sometimes, my anger and frustration at my own situation floods over and makes everything feel so toxic and hopeless. What I think I was trying to say is that there are no easy answers for parents in our situations. Where we live, every minute of every day and every long, wakeful night is a nightmare. What has happened to every one of us is one of the worst things that could ever happen, to any family. I wish I could be stronger and I wish I could help you to be stronger. So I guess that is what I wanted to say. None of us is doing this right, all of us backslide. The battle never ends, because addiction is such a horrible thing. Posting helps so much.
