Thank you ladies. : )

It is so hard to keep my mouth shut at times. We had a pretty uneventful week till yesterday and today was the "bomb". I just can't help it. I get so angry. I have the same feelings as I did with his dad. : ( He doesn't come back at me though like his dad did...

He wants to get in touch with a counselor at the high school who helped him while he started going through the turmoil of his dad coming back here while he was in 11th grade. He wanted me to do it. I told him he needs to do it. I also told him to go live with his dad. (That would be a nightmare...)

I am trying to remain calm. I will be going to a meeting tomorrow night. I have so much to do for Tuesday though. I have inspection every year on this apartment and I have a ton of stuff to do. This latest thing has thrown me into a huge flare and the pain is just so immense... *cries*

I'm sorry if I'm yibbering too much. I need to get it out. I just don't know anymore... Being strong is so hard at times.

I have to go and clean the rug doctor I got yesterday to return it. I feel like my heart is gonna crack yet again.

I know it's up to him though. He needs to go away. Maybe he can accept that if someone other than me tells him? I just don't know. Ugh. : (

I pray for all of us and our addicts. Such a horrible disease...

Take care all.

su : )

The Salvation Army offers a very good and absolutely free rehab program, perhaps your son could consider that option.

My heart (and prayers) go out to you. I too am the mama of an addicted adult son and I know your pain.

Hugs

SU, I hope today was better for you. Being the mom of an adult child addict myself I can sympathize with you! I have found they do tend to listen to others much more than they would listen to us. I pray your son finds that person who can help him realize he needs help. I pray every night for all of us too. Big hugs......
