[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 681249, member: 19522"] Colleen, I do not think you are being selfish, you are [I]living your life[/I]. I will put a different perspective on this. My thoughts are that at least he is [I]talking to you about his drug use.[/I] Whether or not he is being[I] completely[/I] honest who knows? But, and this is a big one here, (maybe I am over reaching?) at [I]least he is saying something, and says he sees it as a problem.[/I] My two, in the past, admitted to next to nothing and did not think they had a problem. I am just wondering about the timing of this. Right before you go on vacation? I agree, it is like an artist painting a large mural, up close and working on detail, one needs to step way back to get the full picture. I hope you enjoy your break Colleen. It has been a difficult journey. Even soldiers take R&R. I hope your son will get his act together and figure out his next steps. Perhaps this bit of time and distance will give everyone a chance to think about what to do. Enjoy yourself Colleen. It is not as if you are leaving for a month or two. Try to get your mind off of the current situation and let go. We all deserve to unwind and breathe. Praying for your peace of mind and heart. (((HUGS))) leafy [/QUOTE]
