[QUOTE="Beta, post: 750254, member: 22597"] Just poking my head in to read through the posts. I love our son, and I despise the person he has become at the same time. I love the person he once was. I think that's what torments me (and all of us?) that somewhere in there the person they once were is still there and we just need to draw them out again. BusynMember, I'm going to look up this Radical Acceptance you mentioned and check it out. Thank you. Copa, your phrase,"To not be enraged or sad because I have linked my own story to him, feeling that I can't be whole if he isn't happy, etc." struck a chord within me. Thank you again for the wisdom you share. And I think also it's not a good idea to give anything that can be sold. A night in a motel would be a kind gift. [/QUOTE]
