[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 748616, member: 18516"] Beta, I'm so sorry for the anguish you are feeling. I get it. Please remember that you have the power to not be controlled or overwhelmed by this. I know it's not easy but you really do have the power and you have been giving the power to your son. You are allowing him to hold your emotions hostage. I've had many messages from son like this and some far worse. What I have learned is that when they are behaving like this it's because there life, at the "moment' is not going the way they think it should. They are angry but instead of being angry with themselves for making poor choices, the transfer their anger to us the parents. They on some level revert to a child and expect mommy to swoop in and make everything better. Your son is an adult and it's not your place to make everything in world okay, he needs to do that for himself. Again, I'm so sorry for the anguish. You can and will get through this. Please be very good to yourself. [/QUOTE]
