I believe in tough love, done nicely.
Take her for a drug test, on the sly or straight up. Getting her a physical "to see if everything medical is OK" way to do it on the sly. Set her down for an open conversation, ask her WHY. Son blew a chance to go to Annopolis, which he said he wanted, was NOT being pushed. We worked 4 months to get political/etc. things in line. All he needed was good grades. Started school, playing football & straight A's. Mid quarter reports were perfect, when grades came put B's & C's. Annopolis was out the window. I set him down & asked why, because didn't cut it. Tough love, works & is sometimes the best route. He is now 15 yrs Navy, has had a good life & retirement career opps. are fantastic. |

maybe its time to let go. and trust that all the things you tried to instill in her while she was growing up kick in on of these days. in my experience it never happened according to my timetable.
i'm 50 and still make mistakes, or bad decisions.

She was out of control and violent, threatening suicide. I called the police and she told the officer she wanted to commit suicide. She is in isolation now; waiting to be transferred to an inpatient facility. I came home to pack some clothes and wait for them to call me and tell me where to go.

My daughter has been an honor student all through high school. She was ready to take a trip to Spain with her Spanish club; and planning on attending college locally. Suddenly she just stopped going to school; wound up suspended; and is no longer eligible for the trip. We lost $3,000. She is also probably not going to graduate. I got her to a counsellor but I am at wit's end. Why is she throwing her life away like this? I don't understand. DRUGS!!!!!! |

They are doing bloodwork, and urine tests. |

She will be safe there and will be taken care of properly. Hopefully, she will be back to her old self soon. My heart goes out to you.

Everything that Alanon and Naranon teach people is to let go with love. Enabling doesn't work. I am so sorry.
