[QUOTE="ColleenB, post: 687923, member: 19887"] RN I am sorry to read your post, just because I know how disappointing it feels when we have hopes for success and our kids don't "get it"..... Your son is making progress even if it feels like he isn't. He is off Benzos, and working and living in the sober living house. Isn't that progress??? I too get impatient with my son, as I don't think his idea of progress and mine are the same..... But I have to remember that for him just not dealing and doing hard drugs are an improvement... For now. That isn't saying they need to keep moving towards independence, but for our case I think it will be in his time, not ours. Hard to accept for me. Detaching is tough, and I can't say I've figured it out myself. Hang in there!!!! [/QUOTE]
