[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 762559, member: 15032"] My son is leaving tomorrow to drive to Chicago. He is staying in Memphis one night with a guy he went through the 13 month program with. He is about 10 years older than my son but is doing well. I am glad for this. Not sure if it will make an impact on him. This is so out of my son's comfort zone but I told him he had to start living outside his comfort zone. He said he is leaving luxury. Well I wouldn't go THAT far but we do have a nice home and comfortable life. I do agree he needs SUPPORT from a program as many mentioned, but again that is up to him. He will be 27 in a few weeks. I cannot DO this for him anymore. He has to get sober for himself. And when I say sober I mean from pills mainly. If he does a bit of drinking or whatever and can handle it and progress that is fine with us. The pills are what does this to him. I cannot determine HOW he moves forward successfully. I am hoping he can do this. I know he can if he has a clear head; otherwise definitely not but either way, not in MY house. [/QUOTE]
