[QUOTE="Tired of this crap, post: 702088, member: 20996"] I know that it sounds rediculus, but sometimes I wish I could go off to one of the rehabs he's been to and take a month off to self reflect and pick my bellybutton poolside. You are so right about us needing to take care of ourselves and it's really hard to do with all that's going on on top of the normal stuff that we have to deal with. By the end of the day, I'm too tired to even enjoy a glass of wine, so it doesn't look like addiction is in my future lol, but I think I'll just start with taking the time to shower daily (anyone with a toddler will understand) and maybe start up my nightly walks that I used to enjoy. My depression over my situation steals as much of my energy and time as me actually trying to stay involved in my son's life. He's grown, I can't turn back the clock, I can't control him and his choices, and I can't make him get help. All I can do is love him and keep hope that he will remember what I tried to teach him and turn it around. Thanks you for your support and understanding. It helps to get it out and I needed a dose of perspective. [/QUOTE]
