My son is addicted to cocaine and it’s ruining our relationship

a group of people standing in a living room talking to each other
Parents and son arguing at home

DEAR DEIDRE: WHEN my son told me he had given up taking cocaine, I wanted to believe him, but he keeps relapsing. 

His mum and I are sick of all his lies, which are destroying our relationship with him. I want to know how to help him quit for good.

I’m 49 and my wife is 48. Our son is 20.

He got in with a bad crowd a few years ago, and started taking drugs, progressing from marijuana to cocaine.

Everything he earned went up his nose, leading him into debt – which we paid off. It also changed his personality, making him irritable and depressed.

We tried to help him come off it – and thought that we had succeeded.

But he’s been going out again, saying he’s meeting friends in the pub for a pint, then coming home high, talking 10 miles an hour and not being able to sleep.

It’s clear he’s back on the coke. Whenever we try to talk about it, he gets angry and says we should trust him.

I’m at the end of my tether and fear for his health and his future.

WORK WORRIES

I'm nervous about returning to work after time off for my drug addiction

DEIDRE'S STORIES

Carl's girlfriend is surprised he's unfazed by men's comments on women

DEIDRE SAYS: Your desire to help your son is admirable, but it sounds like he needs professional support to quit the coke for good.

It will be hard for him, if he’s still seeing the same friends, who are taking drugs. 

My support pack about Drug Worries should be helpful for you to read and provides details of organisations that can help. 

Suggest he looks at The Mix (themix.org.uk), a site for under-25s, with information about drug use.

You need support too. Contact an organisation called Adfam (adman.org.uk), which helps the families of people with drug problems.

The ‘traditional’ home on Irish market for just €65k that’s ideal for first-time buyers – and it’s minutes from beach

HOUSE hunters looking for a slice of rustic charm will be intrigued by a two-bed cottage that’s just hit the market for €65,000.

Situated in Co Donegal, this detached home boasts stunning countryside views and is only a short drive from the beach.

a small house sits in the middle of a grassy field
The €65,000 cottage is a bit of a fixer-upper but the views cannot be beaten
a living room with a fireplace and a picture on the wall that says ' jesus '
The home has not been lived in for over 10 years, which qualifies new owners for large grants
a large body of water surrounded by grassy hills
This steal of a location is ideally placed near some stunning beaches.

The property, which has been unoccupied for over a decade, offers an incredible opportunity.

Particularly for someone ready to roll up their sleeves and bring the cottage back to life.

For those willing to invest, the cottage could qualify for the vacant home grant or the dereliction grant of up to €70,000, subject to approval by local authorities.

Meaning, especially for first-time buyers, this home could almost pay for its renovations.

Listed by DNG Dorrian and shared by the Instagram page @emeraldIslehomes, the traditional cottage sits on a compact 0.14-acre site perched at the top of a valley.

From its elevated position 110 metres above sea level, the home enjoys far-reaching views across the countryside.

From the property you can see towards Cashel Village, with the sea shimmering in the distance.

The cottage extends to around 52 square metres (560 square feet) and features a storm porch as well as living room.

Following on, there is a kitchenette, two bedrooms, and a toilet.

Inside, there’s plenty of character to work with, from the original Belfast sink in the kitchenette to two open solid-fuel fireplaces in the living areas.

However, modernisation is a must, as the property has sustained some wear and tear, including flood damage to the toilet.

Not connected to mains water or a septic tank, potential buyers will need to explore options like rainwater harvesting or installing a borehole.

A single-skinned asbestos roof and other structural quirks reflect the property’s age and unique design.

Adding to its charm, a detached stone weaver’s barn is located in front of the property.

With the right permissions, it could be converted into additional living space.

The rural location offers tranquillity while still being just 4km from Carrick Village.

And around 15.5km from Ardara Village, providing access to essential amenities.

With its scenic setting and endless potential, this property could be a dream project for someone eager to embrace country living.

The added bonus is that some of Ireland’s most beautiful beaches are just a stone’s throw away.
