[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 676493, member: 19522"] DSM, this is classic, for most of our D cs, to use some sort of manipulation or another. I agree with GoingNorth, that a line has been crossed. Violence is right up there at the top of the unacceptable list. It is a no brainer you are feeling depressed, this is getting out of hand and abusive. Even talking of suicide in the future warrants a 911 call in my book. It is taken seriously by authorities, and is cruel to you. DSM, there is a lot of research on video games and the affect on the brain. There is video game addiction. Whether drugs are involved or not, violence of any sort should not be tolerated. You are only trying to help your son. Have you seen a therapist? If not, it may be a good idea, a professional could give you some ideas also, on how to proceed and how to process all of this.....Stay safe dear, and let us know how things go for you. There are folks here who have had issues with other mental conditions with adult children, they will post. For me, it was more verbal abuse and just plain old disrespect, although, with drug use, d cs do exhibit mental challenges down the road. Do take care dear, and stay with us, posting here really does help. You are not alone. {{{HUGS}}} leafy [/QUOTE]
