Thank you!! It is hard enough and when people tell you your decision is wrong it makes it even harder. They told me I would regret this years later. What they can't understand is I have changed and I am now thinking of ME and the other positives in my life, and I have many.
They did act like I was giving up and being spiteful! It is not true, I still love my son with all my heart. So many in this small town will not join support groups because of the 'turn the other cheek attitude' and 'you are his MOTHER'. That doesn't work with an addict. Maybe the ones they are dealing with are not true addicts.
I told my hubby the exact same thing, I am only a source of money to him. The alcohol and drug abuse, mixed with the gf, has made him do and say some very strange things.
They are both so selfish and immature, I have to back away.
Thank you for your support!!!!
