I see so much of me in my 14 year old daughter every day. She is a drug addict. And pot seems to be her favorite thing to smoke. I started using when I was 12. Her first drug ever was when she was 5 when her older brothers thought it would be funny to shoot heroine up her arm. Since then she has been sneaking drugs behind my back. I took her to a juvinile rehab today, and told her "that's it." But I don't want to give up, I feel like such a loser, and I won't lie, when I find pot in her pocket when I am doing the laundry, I want it, I want it really bad, but then I tell myself that I am a father and a role model to my daughter, and I flush it. But I want her to be healthy becasue she has cronic athsma, so on any puff, she could have an athsma attack and could die. She is also too thin for her age. she is 5'2 and weights in at 70 pounds. I really hope that this rehab will help her. I don't want to have to see her come home every day with dialated pupils.
any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks for listening,

Hi all! This is for those of you that have or have had the same neurologist for 4 years or more. I have been with mine now since 2009. He is one of the best movement disorder secialists in the midwest. I know he is extremely busy on the lecture circuit now and in fact not taking new patients there is a huge waiting list for him. BUT.... I feel like my visits are not what they use to be. He...

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
I mean what kind of mother does that right? I always said I would take it to the grave I would never let my kids find out because I desperatly do not want them to do any type of drugs. I guess none of us really know what we'd do in a situation until it arises but I do believe if any of my daughters ever needed me to be honest about it to help them in thier recover I would. My advice, be honest and open with your daughter and hopefully she'll be able to learn from your mistakes instead of repeating them. (god i'm so hipacritical)
Take care. And best of luck to your daughter with her treatment. Oh and I also have an eating disorder. Sounds like your daughter may have a problem with it too. She's in my thoughts.
