[QUOTE="Beta, post: 748622, member: 22597"] Tanya, thank you for your wise and kind words. You echoed exactly what I have been thinking today. He finally did text me today; actually, he went on a rant, told me he hates me, wishes he could slap my face, would kill me in my sleep if he was there, etc. I finally texted him this afternoon and told him that however he is living right now, he is living that way because he CHOOSES to live that way. Any time he wants help and wants out of Denver, we will get him out within 24-48 hours, but until he gets tired of the crappy, hand-to-mouth way he is living, it is his choice, not ours. I told him that I will continue to love and pray for him, but I wasn't going to allow him to destroy me. The hard part is that any time now I will get a text telling me how sorry and ashamed he is and how much he loves me, and that will be hard to deal with. That's the other end of the emotional rollercoaster he has us on. Even when he is being "nice", he still won't answer any direct questions about his life. You are absolutely right--we have been giving him all the power to emotionally drain us. [/QUOTE]
