therapygirl Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Ladies, I am out of town, having to bring my beloved firstborn to rehab. he has developed an addiction to huffing inhalants. This can be deadly even the first time, and I am scared to death. he is 20 and I just found out he has been doing it since eighth grade!! His dad has caught him doing it several times, but I have never been given the opportunity to intervene. He is living with me since his dad became fed up with him, and has been doing quite well. He was at his dad's yesterday and was found huffing again. I have a family member who is a well known interventionist who has gotten him into a good rehab center in Nashville. We drove here tonight and will go to the center in the AM. I ned a rec for pheros for tomorrow. I need respect, cooperation, affection and I need them to cater to my son. I am going to wear Road Opener and Feral for scent. Please help with Phero rec. I do not have Swimming with Sharks with me but I have most everything else including Diane's Rock Star Red Carpet, Treasured Hearts, Leather, Lace, Dominance and many others. I grabbed a huge bagful as I was frantically packing my suitcase. Any recs plus your good wishes for my baby are appreciated. Much Love to all my girls!

FAWN Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I have no rec TG, but my thoughts and prayers are with you and your son. Stay positive & strong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lor Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I think he needs to avoid any transmitter burnout, I wouldnt wear anything. food for thought. Wishing you well and he speedy recovery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
therapygirl Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 I won't be with him but for a few minutes, I will be with people who will be making decisions about him and I will need them to listen to me. Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrazyKat Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I have to agree with Lor, your son may have adrenal burnout. If you decide to wear pheros, Est or Est heavy blends always get me the preferential treatment in a non-sexual way, people REALLY want to help you and make you feel better, which may help you get what you want in regards to your son. Therapygirl, Im sending you positive thoughts and prayers honey! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Countesszero Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I'm sorry your going through this Therapygirl. I would wear Treasured Hearts and True Confessions. Maybe your son will open up about what's bothering him and making him huff. I have a 24 yr old and I know sometimes he gets stressed with the economy and no jobs and just peer pressure. He always spills the beans about what's bothering him when I'm wearing True Confessions. My thoughts are with you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katz Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Just beaming you love and support, and well wishes for your son! Hang in there, TG... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lor Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 Krazykat's idea seems a nice way to get what you need across. Leather (pheros are NOT sexual if they are not viewing you that way to begin with) has EST and a few "listen to me" pheros in there. Will also encourage communication (hopefully to lessen the "i know better" vibe some institutions have). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beccah Posted February 22, 2010 Share Posted February 22, 2010 I agree with Lor, leather. But I would apply it in the bathroom when you get inside, your son's neors are prolly a little burnt out & as having a former drug problem myself. I know that when my adrenals were wore out & I would even drink caffeine that would send me into massive panic attacks.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

therapygirl Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 Ladies, you will not believe the miracle that has happened today. You just will not believe it. We went in and had the assessment and they contacted our insurance. Insurance said they would not pay for inpatient rehab. Said it would be 20,000 dollars up front. Remember I am a student doing an unpaid internship working a very small part time job. I thought I would die. I started tearing up right then.The lady stepped out of her office and came back five minutes later and said this is your lucky day. She said that because of whom my family member is (I have never met this woman, she is a distant cousin, an angel) that the rehab center would pay 80 percent and that we would only have to pay a small amount over several years!!!!!!!!!! Have you ever had someone you do not know drop 18,000.00 in your lap and saved your child's life???? That's what I feel like. I am reeling. I will be forever indebted to this relative, I am due to meet her this week when I go home. I just can't believe it, I am crying as I type. This center is world famous, one of the best in the country. A very famous person spent time there recently, apparently that is common. I put on Road Opener this morning. I never dreamed......

halo0073 Posted February 23, 2010 Share Posted February 23, 2010 Great advice,omg Beccah there was a time when I had panic attacks everyday, sometimes 3 times a day.... thought I was literally going to die. but you can and do fully recupe. there is *nothing* that cannot improve. So there is a definite connection? I know when I was at my worst was when I started having full blown panic attacks...I just thought I was overwhelmed with disappointment with myself. This is very interesting stuff. Therapy Girl---Hugs and healing thoughts and love coming your way sweetie. I 'll bet you are in full on warrior mama mode after finding out this has been kept from you. Leather does sound like a good choice. I hope they treat you and your son with the utmost respect and can help reassure you somewhat. I am sorry your beloved and you are going through this!
