100% better than I was but not at 100% yet
My son is in sober living after his last "relapse" (is it even a relapse if they aren't really in recovery but off the doctor?).
Had been getting great feedback from the sober living peeps. I have not had a lot of communication with him directly which I felt was okay. Let him adult. He is working at a job that he likes. Three days per week since they're slow now but said yesterday he may get second job.
I talked to him yesterday about a root canal he just had done. All went fine. They have him an antibiotic and Motrin. I had called them to warn about addiction but he doesn't know that. He is not in pain with it.
I asked my husband to call him today and touch base. See if he's taking this all seriously etc. since he hasn't really talked to him since he saw him a few weeks ago, only by text.
He told husband he is looking for a place to share on Craigslist; has to move. WHAT???? WTF WHAT??
Husband told him we do not support that. He is to be in sober living one year. I immediately called the Program Director. They don't know anything about this. I'm waiting for a call back from his therapist but they did thank me for letting them know. They have him go to another sober living after this one in a step down type of program but would still see therapist there etc. Son was in group at the time.
So confusing. Son's been doing all the meetings, engaging etc. Not seeing sponsor since he said sponsor wanted 7am meetings on Saturdays and he works late Fridays. Looking for new sponsor per them. Hmm. Program Director again said I have such great boundaries with him. Hello I'm trying to keep my son alive and away from me. Terrible right but that's the truth.
I don't get it. Stomach churn day.
