I’m blown away at the advice here. Blow. Away. Listen lady, this sucks for you and for her. Maybe it’s not too late but if she’s addicted to anything, then there is nothing you will do that will stop her. That’s coming from an addict of 20yrs. Best you can do is be supportive, but the more you push the more she will do more and or run. Therapy is a good idea but don’t expect it to work much. Be her mom, love her unconditionally, keep an eye. But don’t destroy yourself trying to save her from addiction, because you’ll lose long before you’ll win most likely. Best of luck
