[QUOTE="Tiredof33, post: 702070, member: 13558"] I have been struggling with the same issue for many years as many of the members here have. I wish their was a magical answer, sadly, there is not. My child has also been in and out of rehab and many other problems from an early age. Many of the problems with trying to diagnose their mental problems is getting them off the drugs, alcohol, or both. I have seen my child clean and sober and he is completely different than when he is using. I know the drugs make his mental issues much worse. Read the many posts on the forum, they are full of valuable advice. There are lots of books on the subjects in library's and online for free if you are short of funds. And who isn't when they have adult children with our issues? Learn to set boundaries, learn to detach, find a hobby, exercise, mediate. Take care of you. Anything that works to get him clean and sober will have to come from him. He is an adult and there is no way you can force him to change his life, it's his choice alone. (((hugs and blessings))) [/QUOTE]
