I have an 18 year old that is using lately. I had him in rehab about a year ago, but medicaid "refused" to cover and they booted him out...saying "he had no known addiction as of yet", so they would not cover. I wanted treatment before the addiction and he was using so much then that he was skipping school and almost failing out his sr. yr. I got him off by pressing HARD and watching his every move, he gained some trust and graduated with great grades. NOW he's back to using and no insurance because he found a job w/no coverage, and I'm totally disabled and Dad's and addict himself (no longer in home).
I know he smokes pot and has taken E, some pills (all of w/I don't know). What have you done that works or doesn't work. When he was doing good I even helped him to buy a car, matching his money to purchase one, and I had to take the keys last night...I refuse to help him when he's no longer helping himself! (do u think I'm right or wrong there)???? WHAT MORE????? THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!!!

No, I have not but would like to advise you. Don't react in the manner he is doing. try to console him, secure his trust and convince him because unless he is mentally ready to give up, you cannot force upon anything. Please understand that is normal under the circumstances and needs special attention even though it may be difficult. Your objective should be to save him instead of dictating terms or take revenge like. hope you understand what i mean.
