I am trying to find out what to say to my son to help him get off cocaine...he has almost died twice now...Can someone please tell me how to talk to him?
Ask him when the two of you can sit down and discuss some things that have you really concerned. Don't do it when he is high as you will hear whatever it is that will get you off a back. Don't do it when he is tweaking meaning after he is high. The best time is when he is in his right mind, the blaming, yelling and emotional side has a tendency to outwiegh your message. Good luck to you in the process there is truly not a one way fits all but sometimes through trial and error as it in never nice to have a door slammed in your face or talking to a wall neither. Take time outs if things get heated because no one will benefit from it.
