I am struggling with the revelation that my son has been using/experimenting with drugs over this last year. I knew about the weed, but class A drugs was a shock too hard for me. What the hell do I do?
I would be eternally grateful for the advice of anyone who has been through this, both on what to do and what not to do.
He, DS 15, is a strongly independent and stubborn boy with a cunning mind and a soft heart. He hates himself for hurting me but cannot stay away from his friends and 'all the fun'.
I hate drugs more than anything in this world and am literally facing my worst fears. I think I'd deal better with his death than this...i know that sounds awful, but that's how it feels right now.
I feel sick all the time, depressed and lost. He says he's totally fine, can handle himself and that I just need to trust him. Yeh, right.
It doesn't help there's a whole group of them from 12 years and up. They are the rebel kids, beautiful but dangerous, playing with fire and loving it.
I have left every partner who used/dabbled with drugs. But I can't leave my son...
