[QUOTE="Ithurtz, post: 764355, member: 32194"] Well the improvement only lasted about a month. I’ve been back on, reading and re-reading posts over and over. Son has gone back to binge drinking, and suicide ideation. He lives with his mother and she’s been drinking also which didn’t help. I cannot have him live with me and my wife because of his behavior and choices. He did a 3 day stint in psychiatric ward, came out, all pumped up about a job and wrote a new resume, that lasted a week and then back to drinking, suicide, and re-admitted. I haven’t heard any more other than he called me to say he is back in. The writers on this forum have suffered so much and for me they are wonderful therapists. Which is why I reading and re-reading. New Leaf and Copa have helped me so much in my journey with my son. I was actually detaching fairly well until this suicide ideation began. He has never been violent or aggressive in his life and I am not sure if he uses it to gain temporary treatment. But right now I am struggling again while I try to use all the approaches and suggestion put forth here. I have set boundaries on my phone and ceased giving money. But my heart aches so. I see other young adults going about life and cannot grasp why he will not change. I am going to see a therapists nearby. Sorry for rambling but as all of you know, this is a tough road. A [/QUOTE]
