    Never Left..but posting again

    Mouseyone - keep reading on here. I have never not learned something from reading a post on here. It's not a fast walk out of our problems, but this place will help you know that you haven't lost your mind and there is hope. One of the things that I think is so hard is knowing that - no...

    Omg, waiting for the other shoe to fall...... The story of my life. It is hard to be joyful when you immediately think of the "other shoe". I obviously don't need tell you. I have been praying - and praying and praying - for God to intervene in my son's life and to PLEASE release me from the...

    Can I ask what your line in the sand was?

    Thanks, KSM. I wanted so hard to stick to my guns of no more money - but I was such a mess about his well being. After much thinking and prayer, I had to give him another 7 days to make the contacts out there that he needs to in order to be safe and then progress from there (please, God). And...

    I have much better relationships with my adult daughter (44) and adult son (almost 27). I am far from perfect and they remind me when I'm being overbearing or worrying too much. As I've said before, my troubled son was hit by a car while riding his bike as a young teenager and I prayed so hard...

    Lol. I must be older than you. I have no idea what SVD means. But I do hear the rest of your response. And this is going to sound very harsh but - I'm afraid if I sent him money for a ticket somewhere, he'd come back here (where it's also freezing cold) and be on my doorstep. There is no...

    Thank you. I keep praying and praying - for my son and for me. I appreciate your response. I am trying so very hard to be strong. I'm back to taking 1/2 an Ativan twice a day. I have to be able to function.

    I thought I had..... I've prayed and prayed and I go back and forth and back and forth..... WHY DOES IT HAVE TO BE SO COLD OUTSIDE??? When he messaged me while I was on vacation, he said he explained to his daughter that he was going to have to go away for a while but he'd be back and have an...

    Another failed attempt

    Is this the right thing to do? I have spent so so so much money paying his rent, phone, food. Paid for it through his divorce so he could fight for joint custody of his 3 1/2 year old daughter. Paid for it until he found a job - and through him being sick, thus not getting paid. And to the...

    Oh but how to truly stop that. I am packing to go on a trip that has been scheduled since August - my daughter, her husband, and me and my husband - that we have counted down the months and the weeks and the days - and this evening, my son texted me to say he got fired. I can't believe it. I...

    Weary and failing

    I dislike the symbols they use for emoji's and I just couldn't put a heart under your post. My mother had dementia as well - a slow, sad, and painful journey down a slope. So hard. And to have the weight of your son right there at the same time - just heartbreaking. I read the posts on...

    Geez, Copa. I have copied and pasted so many of your comments to read over and over again.

    I fall every time

    My son has been to counseling, psychiatrists and psychologist. He is so intelligent. He manipulates everyone. He tells me that they told him that they can't repair what is damaged in his brain. That there's no medication - no therapy - that will help him. Brain injured is brain injured, is...

    Please we need advice and support

    Lord have mercy. So many feelings, reading your post. So very sorry for you that your son is gone - but also so understand your words "my son's death comes with some relief....". I really can't imagine. I felt some relief when my ex picked up our son and moved him to Ohio with him and his...

    Happy Thanksgiving?!?

    So can someone tell me just how - for the ninetieth time - you tell your son "no more"? I've done it so many times and caved. I read this thread from start to finish. I too have taken an Ativan to get through the chaotic times because sometimes I just can't handle it on my own. It doesn't...
