writes: I have a very sad story. I have two son, who are addicted to crack,or other drugs. 3 other children are doing ok. But our life is ruined,because,I can never stop worry ,and feel, I have no right for happiness. We tried to help them many ways,but it does not work. Im so scared for their life. We raised them well, and we never did drugs or drunk. But society, always suspects ,it is the parents fault. So shame is also part of it. I wonder ,if anybody went through the same, and can tell ,how it was possible,to have a life beside this. It is so tragic. They are good kids, they were so smart and full of potential. I feel very broken. Please tell me what you think about this.

This has nothing to do with you, dont feel guilty. You have done you best to bring them up and all you can do is tell them how much you love them, what ever choice them make in life you will always love and support them, even though you wont always agree. You need to start living your own life, and hope that they will grow out these filthy drug social culture, they have to do it in their own time there is not much you can do, dont nag, question too much about drugs as it just make them lie and hide things from you, be interested of whats happening in that way you will know what drugs, how they are taking them and all. Start living your life, they are adults they can choose to live their life which ever way they want, might not be the best but let them go through it. I dont take drugs myslef my partner does.......

My sympathies and sadness to you . You brought them into this world and you have given them all your love and sacrifices to them .
What more can you do when they chose to walk that path? You could not stop them and there was nothing you can do to help them .Only those state institutions are able to help them now. It is a sad tragedy to the parents.
It is not your fault that they are addicted to drugs. It is the easy availability of those drugs and the lack of strong enforcement by the authorities that contributed to their drug taking.
No matter what happens, you need to keep on living and pray for them to kick those habits.

I trhink it is time you started to look for what you want from your life, It must evry parents nightmare but in the end our kids always do what they want, not what we want? Go to your doctor or seek help or a support group. You cannot get over this but you can with help accept it and move on. Very best
