[QUOTE="ColleenB, post: 694354, member: 19887"] I feel your anguish.... Our son, when he was at his worst, was a huge strain on the family, on our marriage... It was hell. We are all doing a bit better now that he isn't dealing and has moved out. ( so even if he is.... It's not in my house anymore) I come to this site when I feel lost .... Reading the stories helps me feel grounded, like I'm not alone. There are other parents in this pain who can relate. It's so hard .... These babes who we mothered, loved, did everything to nurture ... And they choose self destruction. For me the hardest is seeing his friends doing well. I always feel like "what did I do wrong? What could have been different?" It's a terrible game we play... Blaming ourselves, getting angry, then sad.... It all just keeps us in a circle of crisis. I'm learning to get off the merry go round of dysfunctional behaviour, but it isn't easy. Trying to stay back, not fix everything. Just got a new parking ticket in the mail... So much money we have wasted on his issues and lack of responsibility. Hang in there. Keep posting. It helps. [/QUOTE]
