[quote=Anonymous]Mother of former heroin user here. I'll probably catch flack for this, but if there is one thing I would have done differently it would have been to re-arrange my work to be home after school every day when my child hit high school. Another thing I would have done differently would have been to be much more aggressive when my child complained of pain constantly. After the pediatrician formed the opinion it was probably psychological I went after it half-heartedly. It turned out to be a real illness for which pain is a symptom. Untreated pain that doctors didn't believe was a major, although not the only, reason for my child turning to heroin. Getting a diagnosis was an important factor in diagnosis, which of course was all the harder to get because of the heroin.[/quote]
