Dealing With a Family Members Addiction to Ambien PLease Help?
Question by smaceroni: Dealing with a family members addiction to Ambien PLease help?
OK my sister has been addicted to Ambien for about 4 years now. She has through detox and rehab twice and hasnt gotten better. She is still very much addicted and supoosed to be going into another detox/rehab. She has been supposed to go nor for 2 weeks but everyday comes up with new excuse or chickens out. I have been supportive or encouraging but now its getting hard for me to be that way cause it hard for me to believe that she is actually going to go. She gets mad when I try to give her “tough love”. She gets mad that my parents and I never went to some type of counseling to learn about her problem. She says that since I have never been addicted I dont know what its like. I understand that, but it doesnt take a rocket scientist to know that its going to be pure hell to go through detox and rehab and stay clean. I just dont know what to do or say to her anymore. Has anyone been in this situation? What should I say or do? She is 34 and Im 26

Meth=Death?
Question by jescalex: meth=death?
Not really a question but a statement. In small towns like the one where I live in Indiana meth is so widely used. Due mainly to corn fields and anyhydrous ammonia being one of the main ingredients in meth. Yep theres more than corn in Indiana, there’s meth! My husband has been battling his addiction for three years. When he’s clean he’s awesome, not clean, he seems like he is dying. It makes you violent and you don’t care about anything but getting higher and higher. It will ruin your life!! So many people where I live have died because of it. Then there are the women who dont care enough aout the child they are carrying to quit. So there is the welfare system that has to pay for the children who have severe illnesses from it. If a woman tests positive for drugs during pregnancy her child should be taken away and she should spend life in prison because that is attempted murder. Would you ever want your newborn baby to have to withdrawl off drugs?
Drug Addicted Family Member and Christmas?
Question by Blundt Cake: Drug addicted family member and Christmas?
My brother is a drug addict. He’s done everything drug addicts do- lies, steals, crashes with withdrawals, lashes out, mistreats people, “borrows” money, blames everyone, uses people, lives in denial, can’t keep a job, doesn’t pay bills.
He has treated my mother like dirt, doing everything to her just listed including standing outside her house screaming and cursing at her and most recently stealing Xmas gifts from her house that she bought for other people.
She has bailed him out for years — picked him up from ER, jail, court, gave him money (thousands!), paid his rent, bought food, etc. etc. etc.
