[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 666554, member: 15801"] Yes I am guarded too although i also feel hopeful. I think it is a natural part of this process and important for our own self preservation. I know when my son first went to detox his plan was to go through detox, stay a week and then go back to his apartment and job. After he sobered up and I think with the help of the people there he completely changed his plan, has stayed in the program, has been there 6 weeks and is looking for sober living close by so that he can stay in contact and get the support. I am so so glad I kept my mouth shut and just supported him in whatever plan he chose.... I knew a week of detox would not work but he had to figure that out for himself and he did! So it sounds like your son is getting the help and support he needs. [/QUOTE]
