[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 724049, member: 21895"] Welcome Adalay You are not alone. This is a secrete that is destroying you to keep. Let the secret go and get help for yourself. A great book I read when I started in this group was “Don’t Let Your Kids Kill You”. And another that is excellent is Codependent No More. Do focus on you and seeek help for yourself. This is not your fault. You didn’t Cause it you Can’t Cure it and you Can’t Control it. Your son is mentally ill and a drug addict. Regardless he is making the choices he is making and is capable of seeking help and support; he is refusing to do this. You can not help someone who can not help themselves. You have tolerated enough for a thousand life times. Letting go with love is sometime all we have left to This is beyond frustrating. I too have danced with the legal system and my AS and lost my mind at how inept it is. This is a swirl of stress and anxiety for you. A kindness I do not even think he deserved for his recent behaviour. Block him, turn off your phone. The minute you hear a tyraid on voice mail stop listening and delete it. Same for text messages. Then inform him you are blocking him for 72 hours. If he begins again do it again. Don’t engage this behaviour. It serves no purpose. A break may be a good thing for you. Of course because 100 Hits of acid is how one goes about becoming a good person and changes their drug habits. Exactly so please do not tolerate this behaviour. Your son can make choices and he is making them. He can choose to seek help and get well. Do take care of yourself and your family. It is never easy when our hearts argue with our brains. When doing the right thing feels wrong. That is life with Mental illness and drug addiction. Love the son but not the addiction. Do not enable. Set good solid boundaries and not all at once. Build your competence and ability a bit at a time. You have been through so much. Do knkwntou are not alone. [/QUOTE]
