[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 759955, member: 18958"] Dear newstart I am sorry it's just so, so hard all of the time. It is for me too. I love my son but can't be around him, for the same kinds of reasons. There is the same disorganization, manipulation, chaos and general craziness. I can't bear to see what he has become; what his life has become. I feel just like your husband looks. And I feel despair that my life will always be defined by this cycle. My son is a beloved only child. Like you, I love him, and I just don't know how to reconcile the conflicting emotions, sometimes. Out of sight, out of mind, is when I do the best. I can enjoy my life when I can imagine he is okay. When he calls and wants something from me--generally to move back into the other house--I can't bear it. There is so much water under the bridge, I can't let him back. But knowing he is homeless, is unbearable, too. I am writing to let you know I understand all too fully and well, how painful your situation is, because I share it. [/QUOTE]
