[QUOTE="YogiLori, post: 762989, member: 30044"] It is so hard to change. I have so much more awareness around how I was helping him. Awareness is key. I felt responsible to be his caretaker......I care about him but at 19, I am no longer his care taker. Also tough love. I despise tough love but it is necessary. It is so hard for me but it is getting easier because I see my role in all of it. It is baby steps - not 0-100 the first time. You can only do what you can do.....my husband is much better at it. It gets to the point and you are done. And then you work on supporting yourself rather than their behavior!!! [/QUOTE]
