I'm afraid that my daughter will relapse. What should I do?

My daughter is in recovery from a heroin addiction, but I'm so scared that she might relapse. My mother recently passed and I think it's making her feel stressed. She only stays in the house, and refuses to see any of her friends. Is there anything that I can do to prevent her from relapsing? Other than giving her support?

Unfortunately, no. This is a journey she needs to take on her own. The best you can do is to support her in her recovery. Having said that, you should consider going to Al Anon, Narc Anon or counseling so you can learn to cope and work through the emotions you are experiencing.
