[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 726563, member: 15032"] Welcome and glad you found us. Everyone has given you great advice. When our adult children are sick we are sick too. You have to take care of yourself and your husband. Your worrying and fretting will not help your son one bit. If it did, I know we'd all gladly do it! My son has been using on and off since the age of 15. I finally did go to therapy to help create boundaries for myself and mainly for him. Your mother doesn't really understand what she is dealing with. It's very hard for anyone that hasn't dealt with this to really see what is going on. How can they? It's not the norm. You have come to the right place because all of us here have dealt with this and we can offer you support and tell you what we feel has worked for us. Take what you need and leave the rest. It helps not to feel so alone. :staystrong::notalone: [/QUOTE]
