[QUOTE="SeekingStrength, post: 619277, member: 17635"] Hugs WV, In 3-4 days, you will start feeling much better about this, I think. You did the right thing. You did the ONLY thing. At 20yo, my difficult child was doing much the same stuff - staying in his room, letting us pay his bills and being rude. One time, he spit in husband's face. Twelve years later, my difficult child has not grown one bit. We should have disengaged then. I WISH we had. I am HAPPY you were strong enough to do it. You are most likely saving your son and your family from much more heartache. And, down the road, life will be much better for him because he made it happen. You may feel pretty numb for awhile. As others say, be kind to yourself. Make yourself take walks and enjoy the sounds of birds and the pretty sky. And the time you spend ruminating will lessen and lessen as you feel better and better. You won't [B]think[/B] you did the right thing for your family; you will [B]know [/B]it. The second-guessing will stop as your brain starts taking over. [/QUOTE]
