Hello everyone, I have an 18 yr old addict, who gets out out of a 3 week rehab on Thursday. He was given the choice leave the home or go to rehab and he chose rehab. I know this will be a rough road and I will need all the support I can get? I want to stop all the enabling so he can can do for himself.
Welcome to Nar-Anon Chat! Glad you found us 🙂 I am sure that you will find lots of support here. While I cannot be a sponsor (because I haven't finished working the steps myself), I would be happy to chat with you in the chat room. I have found that talking it out helps me a lot. I also think attending the online meetings is helpful too. I have learned a lot from the topics and from other members sharing.
Hope to see you in the chat room soon.

Hi Chili,
Good for you! Setting boundaries are hard, but maintaining them, even harder. Sounds like you are already moving forward towards self care. How kewl is that!!! 🙂 Looking forward to chatting with you in the chat room and possibly seeing you at an online meeting.
P.S.Have you taken the Enabling Quiz under our General Topics section? Check it out.
Never look down on someone unless you're leaning over to help them up.

Hi. First time. I have a 28 year old daughter in rehab for a week and a half. When she calls she's usually crying. I will start counseling this week to help me with my boundries.
I lost my 27 year old son to drugs almost 5 years ago. Want to help my daughter desperately.
