[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 766665, member: 4152"] This is tragic. I don't have experience with this particular thing. But, I too would say that a support group might be extremely beneficial. Communicating with others, especially within you own physical community, might be very helpful (as well as coming here!) Some might know of local resources that have helped. But, just the camaraderie is a balm. This pain is like none other. Al Anon and Families Anonymous are two I can think of off the top of my head, but I'm sure there are others. As well as private therapy, at least for the short term. Chaos in the home with an adult child is a "no go" for me. But, I know it's extremely hard to figure out what to do as we don't want to see our adult children in harm's way. Again, this might be something local folks who have been with what you are going through, might have some ideas/resources. Please keep on posting...sending good thoughts. [/QUOTE]
