Call her po officer,, let them know what's going on,, sounds that she is back using,, im assuming she is on Probation,, make sure you have your boundaries set ,,, dealing with an addict , not even sure what normal is,, just keep yourself sane,,, you can't stop an addict from using,, If she broke probation one way of "saving" her from herself is get her off the streets, put her in jail , or tell you will take her to rehap,,,until the pain of the addiction is stronger then the pleasure of the drug,,, no reason for them to stop

Its very common for heroin addicts to relaspse,, they actually will relaspse quite a bit before they actually use,,, addiction us a life longe disease,, they are never cured, only the disease can be arrested,

Dont cuddle,,, I would rather have my addict put in jail,, then going to identify the body at the morgue ,,,

So sorry to hear of your daughter's relapse... You are probably right... Our gut usually let's us know does't it? Although the thought of her being in jail is n of pleasant, Cardinal is right, better there and safe than a sad statistic... We are here to share with and cry to...

Yes. Jail is where she should be. Any way you csn have her locked up, do your damndest .I'd give anything to have my baby in jail and alive. I wont ever get another chance. I don't want to see another Parent have to bury their child,,,addiction needs to be seen and treated like a cancer. My best to you all.

I'm so sorry... It's heartbreaking and crazy..

I think Cardinal is right.

I'm sorry you are going through this. I think you are right that she has relapsed.

My son is on probation and I did call the PO about two months ago to tell her that he was still using drugs and would not be able to quit without treatment. She promised to investigate treatment options, but had better things to do. We finally got him into IOP on our own. I suppose when you have violent criminals you are supervising, an addict is low priority.

A few weeks ago the PO was here for a home visit and we talked about drug use and if it would result in him being violated and going to jail if he was caught. She told us that she wasn't going to violate him unless he actually got into trouble with the law. Until then, she would just work with him on trying to quit by mandating treatment.

So, if you call the PO, don't expect help or that she'll go to jail. It's still not a bad idea to call, just keep your expectations low.

Otherwise, set your boundaries. She should not call you or come to your house unless she is sober and willing to talk to you with respect. You will not provide any money, but you will support her in any way she needs it as long as she goes back into treatment. Let her know that you love her, but be a broken record about your boundaries. It's probably also not productive to get in a fight with someone who is using. (I know, that's easier said than done. That's a lesson that I really need to apply in my own life.)

I know this is disheartening when they are doing so well. It is part of addiction and your daughter will have to figure this out on her own. I do not think calling PO will do much good, but the PO will get around to your daughter if she doesn't do what she is suppose to be doing. You could call and I don't see what might come out of it or just let your daughter suffer the consequences of her actions all in time. She will be in trouble and will eventually get caught or PO will realize, she hasn't been complying with the order.
In the mean time when daughter calls for money say no and don't play into her manipulation. Hang up and tell her to call when she is not using drugs. Be tough but loving and don't believe all the crap she will blame on you.

Oh,my heart hurts for you, because when they relapse its heartbreaking. But you said it, you have done all you can do. It is time for her to do it. I know better than anyone how hard t is to let go. Don't put the tracking on, it only tortures you and it doesn't do anything but confirm what you know in your gut and in your heart. Let her know you love her, and will support her recovery but if she chooses to use, you cannot support her. Do not succumb to her blame, its part of her addiciton. You are in my prayers

Thank you all for your kind words and suggestions. I called her PO, yes she was getting ready to get a warrent out for her. Said my daughter has not tried to call her in weeks. told PO what was going on and that she basicly moved out and were to find her. yesterday My daughter calls from another number, says someone stole her purse and she wants me to buy her a cheep phone. the lies I can't take them anymore. I know she never keeps her phone in her purse!!!!!!!!!!! she sold it for money to buy........ Me and her father both at first said no to a cheep phone. but now I can't track her. I havent slept in days, or nights ;-) She is also trying to get a hold of my friends children on FB and begging for money. Is there nothing me and her father can do to get her off the streets?????????????

Been there,,, just hang tight, pray,,, I will stand by and walk you through it,,, if you can get a phone that only lets get dial your number , and 911,,,, let your friends no whats going on,, simply have them say no to money ,,, at this point there you can do,,, the pain of the addiction needs to be worse then the pleasure of the drug,,,,

There was a point when my 23 yr old heroin addict was missing for 3 weeks,,,, I drove myself insane,,, physically I'll ( did loose 50lbs, that was the only positive thing),,,, went through 2 recaps, she just got released from jail after 6 months,,, in those 6 months she did not use( I'm sure it was not by choice ) know we have a whole new issue ,,, she is depressed,,, cause she lost everything to this drug ,,, she is back living with us,,, but I have educated, gathered tools for my self, talked to others,, so in much better place then I was

Here for you girl
Hugs
