[QUOTE="tinamarie1, post: 604616, member: 255"] I feel like I will never be happy again. difficult child is still very angry at me for calling the police when he stole husband's car and then threatened to kill himself if we didn't let him do drugs. We also took away all his privilages (phone, internet, football) except the t.v. So for the past few weeks now...every day... he plants himself in front of the t.v. all day. If I say anything to him, he gets irrate and it usually turns into him yelling at me and me going to my bedroom. I have a small housekeeping business that keeps me gone most of the morning. I dread coming home. The tension is so thick. I ask him every day if he wants to go to lunch, go to the gym, help me cook dinner...ANYTHING. Nope. School starts in about a week and half. But until then I guess he will sit and watch 14 hours of t.v. My husband is in the military and in medication school so we rarely see him. That must be oh so nice for him. Never having to be here and just be obliviously happy. My 19 yr old daughter is talking about getting an apartment with her boyfriend. I can't blame her. I don't want to live here. If I go do anything for myself even stop and get a hamburger...I feel guilty. I feel like my kid is suffering and battling addictions and depression...how can I legitimately have any happiness? Please help me and tell me how to move on yall. [/QUOTE]
