best wishes I've beet both meth , and heroin it can be done .Keep your head up .
I hope the very best for your family.
I destroyed my family and did a decade+ in prison behind a strong cocaine addiction. I can attest that treatment only works if the person wants it too.
Even though it may be hard, if she doesn't react positively to treatment, tough love is the only thing an addict needs.
Shore up your heart. Have faith. Some people need to touch the very very bottom before they reach for the light. What you do for her now could be the very catalyst that harbors change. It's paramount that your not enabling any addictive behavior. There is such a fine moral line to walk between being a compassionate and caring parent and not being part of the problem. Sometimes you may feel like your not helping like you should as a parent or just as a good person.
You have to let her work out her own issues.
If she uses your grandchild as an emotion crutch to pull at your heart strings. Step back from her, let her addiction run it course, when CPS does intervene, then swoop in an rescue the baby. Be wary that some addicts prefer that their parents raise their children, so don't fall into that trap. And by trap, I mean enabling her to live carefree.
I wish the best for you. I pray for her.
Peace

@diamond2.0,
Wow, you guys are off the friggn hook. Damn near brought a tear to my eye seeing the bunch of you all taking the time to show the cactus man a little love. The blessing, prayers, good vibes and karma is overwhelming, in a good way. Like I was telling @Skoosh its stuff like this that renews my faith in mankind. Too bad we couldn't get the whole planet to roll like we stoners do. The personal struggles some of you shared publicly to identify with my situation was awesome!!!! Congrats on your triumphs and clean time. You should all be proud!!!!!. But lets see if my memory serves me, " Dont get too comfortable with your recovery cause that mofo (addiction) is cunning , baffling & powerful.
dont know bout you guys but even after 21 years clean from Ola and chiva my addiction is always standing close by doing jumping jacks waiting for me to come back.
What struck me was it reminded me of the recovery rooms I used to frequent many years ago and you guys were giving back what was so freely given to you and on a spiritual level that is just too friggn kool.
I Thank my HP that I have the tools today to soldier thru this no matter what the turn out is for Alicia. Time will tell. All I can do at this point is continue to teach by example, and love her till she can learn to love herself again.
Thank you all again for reaching out today and I will always remember this day. If any of you ever need a hand and shit gets sideways on you please dont hesitate to reach out to me and I will do what I can within my abilities. I hope to see some of you all in Denver for a real handshake and a hug............. Peace out
