Update: The hospital knew of my son’s substance abuse and they prescribed him Percocet and more!

This is an update from my last episode. My 16 year old son had been taken by ambulance to the emergency room because he jumped from a third story window to get out of the house to chase drugs. I asked that he is FD12’d to access his mental health and all of the hospital staff who had come in contact with him, knew that he was on drugs. No one assesses his drug usage (whether he would’ve denied it or not), no one addressed his mental health and they sent him home with Percocet and a 30day supply ...

MY SON JUMPED FROM A 3rd STORY WINDOW.

My son jumped out of my apartment 3rd story window, fractured his pelvis and no telling what else. I have been asking for help for his substance use problem in DC and my cry has been landing on death ears. I have been asking, begging for someone to help me save my son’s life and no response. They say “Let help in” I have been wide open and nothing came in to help per my request.

MISSING PERSON! Seeking help for my son who is using drugs at 16 years old and dying.

This episode is a continuation of my journey to seek help for my son who is 16 years old and dying from substance abuse. DC has no youth treatment facilities for substance use.

People don’t give a shit about you!

This episode encourages one to move on behalf of themselves when seeking help and advocating for them selves and/or family members. As hard as it may be to sometimes ask for help, when you do you get rejected, shamed and your situation is just spectated. You call folk out when you need help, and find out you may be alone in your journey, but keeping moving, dragging, crawling but be sure that you are continuously working for you. Everything else is extra and know that you will eventually end up ...

My Family Need Help DC! My son is using drugs and his eyes is buldging! Systems of care cares-less!

We need help as a family for my 16 year old who is using K2 viciously. The “System of Care” in DC in my opinion could care-less. Why my son has to be connected to the justice system, have an IEP or be truant before we can ask for help to “PIN” him. Substance abuse can affect anyone without having any other attachments. I won’t be able to “PIN” him via DC courts unless he is a young criminal, truant etc. he should not have to meet any criteria to receive help outside of “Self Harm”” Possible Deat...
