[QUOTE="WiseChoices, post: 752229, member: 24254"] Is he attending meetings? AA or NA? Without meetings (and working the program of recovery), he will not stay sober. I speak from experience! If you can direct him to either one of those programs, they will help him. I have seen so much help given in AA for every situation in life. They will direct him for a place to stay and food if he is serious about his recovery. AA would also know about community resources for sober houses etc Ultimately, this is all the responsibility of your son, not yours .I have heard countless times in the rooms of AA and NA about people being depressed, suicidal, high anxiety and they do recover if they have the capacity to be honest . By protecting your serenity, you are teaching him more than you can ever know .He will find happiness through self-support, not dependency. [/QUOTE]
