I got mad
I think I posted before in families of Alcoholic. Not sure what I need here, oh yeah, please just make this all a bad joke. We lost our 32 yr old son to Alcohol and drug overdose 3 weeks ago. He was found in bed by his younger brother/roommate (age 29). I believe this youngest son also has a prescrip drug addiction. I got very angry and blew up at DH, he thought he would take son out for a drink and give him a chance to talk. DH just didn't get what I was upset about. I am coming to understand I have no control over anyone else's actions, except my own. I guess I am just angry. I don't want to loose another son.

So sorry for your loss.
Anger does serve a purpose for a period of time, after that it is like acid, it will eat you from the inside out.
Grieve, get mad, cry your heart out, then start living again.
You are right, you have no control over anyone but yourself.
This loss will not disappear overnight, be patient work through the emotions of losing a child and embrace your future with your other children.

So sorry to hear about your loss. My aunt lost two of my cousins to addiction and alcohol, and I've lost so many more friends. Hope that you have a little healing by posting here.
Sadly, I had family that didn't 'get' addiction either. They held the same belief as your husband...that there is nothing wrong with discussing addiction over drinks.

I am so sorry for your loss. My son died in 08 of drug overdose I still can't believe it. I miss him so much I did everything to stop him. But I didn't cause it and I couldn't cure it. I did try. You have to take care of you and I know it is hard I am still grieving all this time he was my only child.
I will pray for you and your family only God knows the plan for our sons.
Bless you
