[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 726189, member: 19522"] Origami you’ve received very good advice from replies here. I am glad you talked with your husband and found out you are on the same page. I have pretty much been through the ringer with my two daughters. Tornado is nearing 30, Rain, 38. I don’t trust either of them, they are both addicts and as far as I know, actively using. Which of course means if and when they come around here, I have to be on my toes. Purse locked in the car, etc. That being stated, I am so sorry for all you have been through. It’s tough stuff for us Moms. Oh, the stories I have been told, heirlooms long gone, it was and is, a never ending saga. I have found that having my two in my home is not possible. Not only for me, but for them, too. They just don’t get any better. You and your husband deserve peace in your home. I am working hard at that, and finding joy, despite whatever my two are doing. Which is hard, because we all want the best for our kids, no matter how old they are. If we put our lives on hold, waiting for them to wake up and smell the proverbial coffee, we might not get a chance to have the best rest of our lives before our number is up. After years of dealing with this, and hubs passing, I’ve decided that what I really wish my two would do- take care of themselves,[I] I need to do as well. [/I] I can’t make them do it, they make their own choices, but I can do my utmost to model self care. 2018 is here, sheesh, the years are marching by so quickly. Please be very kind to yourself and take care. I am glad you will check out Nar-Anon. Do everything you can to build your toolbox. Know that you are not alone. Wishing you strength and peace of mind. (((Hugs))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
