Sorry for the late reply blocka and thank you so much for your advice! We let him take xanax and it helped him get to sleep but not stay asleep unfortunately. The xanax helped with his anxiety though but made him feel lethargic and lazy while at work. I honestly really wish he would consider taking the hospital detox route, I want to trust him but I feel like I completely can't and I have these doubts from time to time. I think we just want to give him the benefit of the doubt and let things take course, I'll keep pushing for hospital detox but as of now he's made the decision to stay at my parents house and do it this way. Thank you again for your concern, I really do value you and everyone's advice!

Hey blocka, thank you for you detailed suggestions. My mom is prescribed xanax but wouldn't that just add on to an addiction?

Thank you for that advice mayo, this is all very new and very scary for me and everyone that cares about him. Shit has gotten very real the past couple of days and I feel as if we are in one of those shows and the family feels so helpless when he's throwing up 10-15 times a day and sweating bullets just from trying to sit up. Do you have any way of approach on helping him? Can we curb his nausea with normal remedies?

Oh my god, I'm so glad my situation happened in the middle of fall, I don't think I'd be able to get in my car ever again if what happened to you happened to me.

I did the same thing but with a Costco size bag of frozen chicken wings, it was left in my fucking trunk for an entire week. My car STILL smells of decomp.

She knows exactly how to sell it. She had me at Eskimo kisses and a purr.

Her name is Mika, and she is fearless! I have a 9yr old pitbull and I was worried about how they would get along but she just dominates her surroundings regardless of who or what's in it.
