That is truly terrible, when you want to help, try and help, but they don't want to be helped, or even if they do, can't acknowledge the problem. I have no idea what your going through in that instance, but I imagine it must be hell. Having PTSD and that sort of stress, I do know is quite immense. I have had many situations where my stress has gotten me out of control, when being concerned about something, or someone around me. I think your on the right track though Camry, with the support line. Just to talk with a counsellor who knows, must be quite a relief to release some of the burden from your shoulders. I don't think I could personally handle a family member doing such things, and being in such a situation where their life is hanging in the balance. I would most likely be quite a mess myself. You really are quite a strong person to deal with these matters, and your own, and keep it together. You really do deserve credit for the efforts your making to help your family rid drug addictions. |
