[QUOTE="Starshine22, post: 749447, member: 24083"] I'm sorry this has taken so long to get back to you. Thank you so so soooooo much for your beautiful note. I read this and cried my eyes almost out it was exactly how I was feeling I'm so sorry you are experiencing the same thing. I was placing myself there with him my mind was racing with fear for him. It made me realize at the same time you are right there is nothing I can do to help him and putting myself is such distress is not helping me or my family there is none any of us can do we have all tried everything . As you know the first thing you do is blame yourself what could I have done differently or better but mental illness is not any of that it just is. I do see a thearpist I have an appointment with him Friday. I randomly get moments of panic stricken fear for him and get overwhelmed by it. He's 1,500 miles from me I have begged him to get help he refuses to take any kind of medicine and he refused therapy any kind of help. He married in January by April it was over. He could never hold down a job for any length of time. I don't think it was he didn't want to work he was not mentally capable of it. I'm a Christian I pray all the time for him I had a friend tell me to put it at God's feet and leave it alone don't go back to it I couldn't do it until this past Monday and it was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders he's in God's hands now. I will pray for you, your son and your family. Thank you so so much for all your help. [/QUOTE]
