You immediately think drugs don't you? Or smoking. That was my 1st thought. Ironically I would say we have a really good relationship. She is very open with me and tells me loads of personal stuff. She's told me she's vaped in the past, tried weed, I let her have some alcohol with us so no real drinking issue. This is why I don't get it. She's in a group of friends and they almost all smoke. She's offered it all the time and has told me what's the point of starting now as its expensive and she leaves school next June anyway. So I dont think it's that. I've asked her about weed. She says she does it every few months or so if the situation arises. Never appears to be secretive about it. Now she's been really moody since Thurs. Flying off the handle and definitely acting different. She was really mad and tearful Fri night. That much so we went out for a walk in the dark. She just said she didn't know why she felt like she did no reason for it.
Yesterday after I had already given her money she called and said she had lost her bus ticket and I needed to transfer more money, a tenner. It didn't add up. I gave her a fiver and she ended up leaving her friends and storming home.
Last night something else occurred to me. She's been getting awful migraines and has had Syndol on and off. Contains codeine. I have always trusted her to have these with her incase she needs them at school. She ended up telling me she has taken them every day last week. 2 a day. Except on Fri when she was extra vile. I have now thrown them away and said I will help her etc etc. Thought that was the problem but getting up this morning her clothes are in the bathroom and a fiver was on the side. So after her begging me to give her more money she had it anyway? Why would she need more. All previous money is transferred online and I have access to her account and even have the card. She uses apple pay on her phone only and whatever bits of cash she has. I'm wondering if there's something else going on and the Syndol is an excuse? Help!
