Good development I hope she stays got herself and her don Prayers for your strength

Helpless Just catching up Miss everyone!! Started new job and can’t access sites at work because they watch closely I am assistant to CEO so I’d look bad if I view sites not work related Sorry he is still doing this thing but remember if you help it postpones him having to change I know you know...

Thanks ladies. He came for dinner last night and stayed the night and we went to get our Illinois license this morning. He did say he plans to take some online IT classes so I'm glad to hear that. Not pushing right now as we want him to adjust to his new life here. He will start second job...

Thanks to everyone for their support. So happy that we all have each other to offer comfort and advice. As you may recall (if we can even remember all the stories we read about here!) my son relapsed on pills (after five years without pills!!!) in July as we were preparing our move across the...

Mirabelle I'm so sorry to hear this but she is an adult making bad choices like many of our "adults" here. I do hope and pray the baby is healthy and that the father pays child support if they don't stay together. Many young women have babies and they somehow make it work. Maybe that will...

Leafy I'm so sorry that you are STILL going through this. So many of us here are and we have to accept that this is our normal even though it is in no way "normal". No one can possibly understand unless they go through it. I spent the day with some old friends Sunday and my one friend lost...

Hi I have done this as well - not my entire life - but as it relates to my son. It drives my husband crazy!!! I am getting better. Once you realize you do it, it helps a lot!!

Hi This is good news. Yes God's hands. We can't fix everything.

We have not given him a definitive answer yet on the apartment but I believe we are moving forward. We are not going to let him be on the streets even though he relapsed and isn't exactly saying what we want to hear. We can supplement for one year and then he will be on his own completely...

Hi It ends up the charges did NOT go to our card so that is all ok. Of course he was high when he did it. He said he had some pills left over and knows he cannot take them because they make him do crazy things. Really?? He has an interview today for a pretty good job that would enable him to...

He is staying in a hotel right now so not sure what he is doing. He is GOOD when he doesn't do pills which he stayed away from for 5 years. I think he'll do more being away from "mom" than he did here. This is a good experience for him in any case - time to grow up. He does not have health...

So I had texted son yesterday morning because I felt so sad and then of course worry about fentanyl and him just dying alone and us not knowing. I always go to worse case scenario. I wrote "you are special, we love you and there is help for addiction". A while later he texted back and said...

Thanks ladies I just think his anxiety is over the top always. He just gave into temptation. My husband can be very hard on him, almost borderline abusive at times I think. Mainly when he is stressed which we have been extremely due to move and new jobs. He loves him and is a good man but he...

So... Deni: YES you nailed it. The minute he gets close to being independent HE does this. WHY? I do not think he will do well in any way because he is taking this. Per his FB posts, it looks like he is gaming all the time. We believe my son is on xanax because of his behaviors. This makes...

Yes we already did. He said he "gave the wrong number by accident" but we don't believe it. We're in a SHI&storm right now.

Maybe we should meet sometime Helpless. I am in Chicagoland also. PM me.

So he just charged over $1000 to our credit card for hotels....

Good morning It all happened fast. My son was seemingly doing well since we moved back to Chicagoland. Working etc. Sometimes drinking too much beer but it was light beer and oh well we pick our battles don't we. Then he started being high ALL THE TIME. We'd smell weed in the house - he was...

Hi I wanted to add that I hope you are sharing this with your husband and he is being supportive. You need his support right now.

HI I'm so sorry to hear this. I know it is beyond heartbreaking. I always think of the mothers of guys that are on death row or out on the streets panhandling. I know that someone out there loves them. I'm not saying that will be your son but you do have to face that these are his choices now...
