[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 696626, member: 18958"] RN. This infuriates me. But on the other hand what else would a cocky, arrogant 20 year old male say? On the other hand maybe he is really frightened and defensive. Maybe he is beginning to see just how addicted he is and fear that he does not have what it takes to quit (false). He is very, very young. I really do feel for him. He is so out of his league having to deal with a problem like this. This is where detachment comes in. Because any mother along for the ride with a son with these kinds of attitudes (denial, fear, hanging on to what he thinks any young 20 year old male would want, and want to do) would feel both desperate and berserk. So the summary statement is I really feel for him and for you a whole lot. And I am very, very impressed he found the new treatment program. He did not have to. He really did not. He is walking the walk, even though he might be mouthing off the whole way. It is the walk that counts. [/QUOTE]
