[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 635158, member: 17542"] WF, today just try to take care of yourself. If you can, don't text or communicate with difficult child. You can't do a thing right now about him or to help him. You must take care of yourself. When you are feeling better, if this is even a possibility, try to get an address for him by contacting other people you know in that town. If you can't, then you will have to work to let that go. You must have some time, space and distance for yourself. You need help to regain your life. You deserve and need to have a life, a job, a relationship. We can't save other people. We just can't. As much as we want to. It is just not possible. Warm hugs. Rest, take care of you, at least just for today. Then, start putting one foot in front of the other. Get to Al-Anon. Keep going, even if it doesn't make any sense at first. You have another child to take care of. Do it for him if you can't do it for yourself. [/QUOTE]
