Question by Dallas: i have VERY strong feelings that my father is doing cocaine. what do i do??r=1253816862?
Okay, now here’s the story. My dad has nearly every single symptom of a cocaine addict. And to add on I found a block, straws, a blade, a spoon, and empty bags in his top drawer. My dad has a weird eating and sleeping pattern, he dropped out of school when he was younger, he gets angry, hostile, he never gets blood work done when he’s in a good mood, he has red, bloodshot eyes, changed behavior, high blood pressure, he gets withdrawn, depressed, tired, and even careless. He’s NEVER hurt me, my mom, or my older brother who’s 21. All the bad behavior comes after two or three days of an energetic and happy mood. He’s yelled and cussed at me and my mom so many times when he’s in the “bad mood” and i’m just so sick of it all. I don’t know what to do. I’m scared to ask anyone in my family because they have enough problems as it is. And I don’t know whether to ask my older brother about it because he and his girlfriend have a baby on the way. Please help me.
