[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 753906, member: 15032"] Helpless I am sorry to hear that your son has not changed his ways. Of course you are sad and confused. He is very young. My son started to have issues at 15 as well but no gangs or anything, just escalating drug use and non communication. I would not go back to those days if my life depended on it. I think this time of year adds to the sadness because we want to have happy holidays. Who doesn't? I think you are on the right track knowing that you need to see a therapist to get through this. I know I would have lost it if I had not had a therapist during the worst times. The guilt, all of it. We are moms and we want to fix everything. I am still struggling with my now 24 year old not being where I feel he should be. He is still struggling but I do know that he is trying and for now, that is all I need. Prayers that your son will find his way. It can take a LONG time so in the meantime, you need to take care of you. [/QUOTE]
