My son is an addict and was getting out of prison in July and I was going out of my mind with worry. I had a visit with a therapist and he recommended Naranon and it has changed my life. My stress level is so far below what it used to be. My son still has issues, big issues, but me not trying to control his life has lead to a big decrease in his anger and his life is better. It still sucks big time, but I can;t control it and am trying to focus on myself and healthy living and life is better.

Good luck!
