I'm sure you can find a nice card from a shop nearby along with something that you know she has an interest in. You could take her out for a meal if you struggle to think of a gift. Enjoy her day with her. :)
 
How on earth can you get addicted to an anti anxiety drug so young?! Where did you even come in contact with it?
 
Respect for owning up to your addiction & problems but this thread will turn into pages of people slagging you off.
Now you've admitted the problem you can start the slow process of making your Mother trust you again.
The best present in the world would be for you to sit down with her, admit to what a bad boy you've been and to come to a solution with her help (because she will want to help).
Of course you could then take her for a meal.

Yup - the best present you could give to her is sorting yourself out. Parents don't care for material things - they just want thier children to be safe and happy.
 
How about you run away and leave her in peace? Probably the best thing for her?

Or you could just take her out for a meal and spend some time with her?.....You know like normal person would?

Being normal is over rated.

At least you have admitted the addiction - spend as much time with her on her birthday and do the things she loves with her. And are you getting help?

Getting out of her life?

Yeah, because most normal mums would be so pleased if their sons just disappeared and had nothing further to do with them.

Do this.

It's all well and good admitting you have a problem - but how many times do you see someone get out of a hole they've dug so deep for themselves...

I don't know if it's just me being cynical because I'm tired and in work - but more likely than not he could just put false hope into his mum - and go straight back to way things were.
 
Benzos are some of THE most addictive drugs that can be prescribed.

There was a big clampdown in the last few years to try and sort this out, and GPs have a guideline that they are not allowed to prescribe for more than 14 days usually.

Scotland used to be the valium capital of Europe too. They managed to munch their way through the most 10 years ago, so well done Scotland!!

Mixing with alcohol is obviously not recommended, but can be rather pleasureable.

As for your mum OP, well theres only ONE thing you can do... BE NICE and show her that her son isnt a drug fuelled maniac. (unless you are a drug fuelled maniac, in which case.... er.... u should seek proper help)
 
Some flowers, chocolates and a card will do. The best present you can give her is to say that you’re sorry for how you’ve been to her and that you are going to change your ways. Oh and give her a hug and a kiss.
