Hello,





I am a 20-year-old man living in London. I am a professional photographer and recently set up a program working with ill youth. We started in about December and have worked with addiction, mental health issues and other illnesses. We work with all youth up to the age of 18 and are making good progress. I have no medical knowledge but I have a lot of experience myself. My Dad died when I was 13 and my Mum started beating me and my siblings. I became a heavy drinker/smoker and was a heroin addict by the time I was 14. I then became a Dad at the age of 17 and my son's Mother left us two weeks after birth. I fought to get clean and developed schizophrenia, depression and PTSD. I became hospitalised many times from suicide attempts and was sedated because I was so violent. I've mugged people, robbed shops and been through more than most people my age. I now use this to help other youth going through the same situation. We have links with a lot of outside services such as counselling and drug rehab programs.





We generally offer support for any youth who need it. A few forms need to be filled out, there is no cost - if we think the youth would benefit from the program. We do not yet have any accommodation available on site but we are working towards it. The program is usually for 8 weeks, it includes activities involving photography and performing arts. We have on-site counselors and children's psychiatrists and a range of activities for youth to get involved in. It's basically to promote new hobbies and to get them involved with others their age.





It's only just starting out, but feel free to email me for a more detailed plan of what we do and how we do it.





I hope I can be of any help, even if you just want to email me to ask something.
Just tell her she cant be around those bad influences no longer take away her cell phone any communication device and keep a close guard on her then she will half to choose what she wants to be with friends and have the luxury's in life or be disobedient then in that case give her not even an inch give her a few days to think about it then if she is still stubborn make her get a job I worked since I was 8 it kept me out of trouble and created a bright future for me I am now 16 and I taught myself self discipline in that area I never did drugs and I dont drink nor do I smoke





So take my advice try it what do you got to lose any way?? the way I see it your failing already letting a 17 yr. old girl run the show she don't need counseling thats all in the head I told my mother the same thing she used to think she was ';addicted'; thats all pre-thought garbage we say that because we cannot admit we want to fit in with todays society so if we claim to be ';addicted'; to something we have an excuse thats all it is an excuse because if she was to be a good human being those who are into bad things would criticize her and she wouldnt fit in thats all it amounts to thats what seperates the good and the bad all people can be good they just go to want to
An alcoholism intervention facilitates the entrance of an alcoholic individual into an alcoholism treatment program. Why not let her join an alcoholism intervention first.





Take this one as reference:
It is not humanistic, but it is the healthiest, most rational perspective I have come across - try smartrecovery.org
