[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 742993, member: 18958"] [LEFT][COLOR=rgb(20, 20, 20)] This is the worst. This is so hard. We have no defenses when in our sleep we go to these places. We are conquered in our sleep and we wake up hostages. And have to spend several hours just regaining possession of ourselves. I am sorry, TL.[/COLOR][/LEFT] All of this is fantastic. Now here's the thing: There is never more than probability in life. We suppress awareness that we live our lives based upon odds, probability. We feel secure. That if we do that, and not that, we are safe. It is an illusion. The reality is that your son has been making consistent efforts to better himself and his life. But he also does self-destructive stuff. And then he picks himself up and puts himself back on the path. In this current situation...you are going to visit tomorrow with the team, WHICH IS GOOD. Every time that I am aware of, son has responded to your support. There is no reason to think this will not happen again. Without knowing the specific behavior it is hard to comment. But there is no reason to NOT THINK that there can be a response, an intervention, a plan to deal with it. There is goodwill, commitment and love. We have to believe that together you all will come up with something that speaks to your son and he will listen. TL. I think I know how hard this is. Because it is so hard for me, too. It is so hard when they take such risks with their lives...either denying the consequences or indifferent to them. I deal with this too. Please know how much we care. [/QUOTE]
