What's your question?

What advice do you need?
Your OP is not clear.
Are you saying that your child is taking drugs?

staceyflack · 20/08/2022 03:18

Yes. How do / did other mums get through their child's problematic drug use? How do I cope? She has all the possible services involved, she is in a terrible mess, and I am dying inside.

Taking Xanax regularly is dangerous because she can have seizures if she stops taking the drug. Tell her this..........

I have no answers but sending empathy and support. Is she having counselling? Are you?

staceyflack · 20/08/2022 22:19

She knows @blockpavingismynightmare
and that's why I'm so worried for her.

Thank you @bluejelly yes we both have counsellors, but it's still devastating.
