Your son put himself out when he chose to use drugs.

As the mama of a son who also chose drugs, I get through my days by saying a prayer for my son and asking God to do for him what I cannot.

Bringing addiction into your home is not the solution. But maybe if he gets uncomfortable enough, he will seek the solution from the places that offer real help.

I know how much this hurts.

Big hugs from my heart to yours.
Ann thanks so much. I do want God to help and hope my son can open his heart. I know being the young age of 22 he thinks he doesn't need the support anymore. but he relapsed maybe he doesn't need to go back to rehab but when he didn't call anyone go to a meeting or anthing to do with the program. I got so annoyed. Crazy codependent coming out of me. I know im not in the drivers seat anymore and I know the tough love of saying you have to go had to happen. Then he told me he has no where to go I told him I love him but this house is not good for him. He needs to find his on path back and in the world. He stayed in house all day could have made calls could have been to meeting It enough I have to stick to the boundaries I know it. Thanks for responding to me it always makes me feel like im not alone. I know he has the tools to do what it takes He has done it alone for the last 11 months.
