My DD just got home from rehab, 2 days. She is in drug court. I left my pain pills in my bag and she took one, failed urine test and is back in jail. I was too lazy to hide them and then forgot. I feel horrible, I know it was up to her to just not do it, but the addict mentality…. I'm having a hard time forgiving myself.
Hi Vanessa60, you learned your lesson the hard way. I know from experience that addicts have a hard time resisting drugs. In the past, I tried to control my dear hubby's (DH's) addiction to pain medicine by administering a reasonable amount of medicine every day. I was in charge of the key, and I liked my hiding place. I did not realize He knew where the key was, and I was not going to change the location of the key anyway. When he started running low early, he admitted he used the key when I was asleep. I have more peace of mind now that I do not hide the key or pills from him, because it was up to him to face the consequences of his addiction.
