Very interesting. My son can do the same thing. How are you's? can open up a can of worms, ESPECIALLY when he's on the multi-day etoh binges. Like I wrote in a prior post from yesterday, the other night, after his very depressed VM he left me, I called him immediately (he sucked me in) & listened to him rant/vent, then after around 15mins of that, when I set a boundary and put out there, a solution which he was not fond of...in a matter of fact way, he did hang up on me. BUT, within 20 minutes, the texts started and they sounded way more stable than he was on our phone convo. Which baffles me cuz he was unstable on phone call then within 20 mins. texting a totally different mood. He was suddenly, after the hang up, able to pull himself together? Talk rational? Hm..I was so happy though. I was able to sleep a bit better.
I know. I sound hopeless.....
