[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 766630, member: 18958"] Hi Katya. I am sorry that the situation has become so clearcut (not in a good way)--but there is that silver lining. All of us here have had to accept that someone we love the most in the world wants to live in a way that will hurt them or kill them. That is why it is so very, very hard for us to let go. I personally found it unbearable to let go. Until I did. I learned that my son and my son's life were separate and different from me. You would think I would want to feel and know that, but I fought it tooth and nail. I am remembering when I came to this forum 10 years ago, I knew I had hit bottom when I wanted to enroll in my son's college classes to make sure he was attending and doing the work. I guess I even contemplated doing the work. I knew this was disordered thinking, but I couldn't stop myself. You are not alone. [/QUOTE]
