[QUOTE="LauraH, post: 744254, member: 22877"] My son unfriended me on Facebook tonight after sending me a lovely message telling me I'm a two faced liar that can't be trusted (and the "reasons" why, which are based, as far as I can tell, from some crap his ex told him which if that's the case was nothing but lies) and that he was cutting me out of his life because I'm dangerous and do nothing but hinder his well-being and recovery. This after spending half the night with him in the ER when he was scared, delusional, and trying to detox from a 7 day meth and heroin bender and he "needed his mother". This after my husband and I paying out of pocket for two weeks of his medications. This after flying him down here to get him out of Chicago and away from the ex who got him started on meth and perpetuated it even when my son was trying to get clean. Essentially he blamed everything that's gone wrong in his adult life on the fact that I called the police on him when he was 13 or 14 and physically assaulted me. Blamed me for being on juvenile probation until he aged out at 19 because I reported his violations to his PO and kept getting his probation extended and even a couple of residential facilities. Whatever. I am hurt, angry, and extremely bitter. Why did he wait until he had squeezed every penny out of me he could before cutting the cord. I don't know if I'll ever hear from him again or how I'll react if I do. Only time will have those answers. Thank you, everyone, for all the support and kind (and even firm) responses you've given me since the time I found this forum. Whether I hear from my son again or not remains to be seen, but even if I don't, I imagine I'll still be showing up for a friendly or reassuring word from you. [/QUOTE]
