[QUOTE="Mitch2454, post: 757712, member: 25501"] Thank you everyone for your thoughtful responses. An update from my last post- Last Thursday, my son told me that he had found a place to stay. It was with a friend of his and his wife, my son would typically go over there some weekends so he could get drunk so not the best influence but nothing I can do about that. I will admit, I felt great relief to not have to take him to a homeless shelter. Selfish of me I know, it probably would have been a good lesson for him. On Friday afternoon, he decided to walk over to his friends house instead of waiting for him to come over and get him later that night so he walked the 5 miles. I did offer to drive him but he didn't want me too. He left, didn't tell anyone goodbye but has texted me various times like nothing is wrong. No apologizes, nothing. When I asked him what his plans were for the week job wise, he said its supposed to rain all week so he will probably make a few phone calls. SMH. My emotions have been all over the place but when I realized he left Friday, I felt a sense of relief come over me. I've taken back my basement as my office again and I don't have to walk over him to get to my desk as he lays there and sleeps and watches TV all day. I have found that while I am ok during the day, my thoughts race at night hoping he is making good decisions and he is alright so I am obviously still having a hard time with it. [/QUOTE]
