[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 619294, member: 4152"] Wow! We got some improvement with our daughter when we set very clear unbreakable boundaries. We also will not speak with her if she is rude to us. I would greatly, BIG time limit any funds to him. I would consider paying for REAL medical and psychological care for the time being and perhaps gift cards for the food store for a very short time if and only if he can be cooperative and appropriate. I would NOT help with much if anything else. He needs to find a better attitude and employment pronto!! I seriously doubt you should let him stay at your place!!!!! If you find your heart hurting excessively, please read literature on boundaries and. Enabling...even consider short term therapy. Just read that he is 32....hmmmm mental illness is likely involved. Stay firm, stay strong. Seek support from groups like NAMI. He should still seek counseling, employment, limit your involvement and treat you right. If he can't do this, down the road he might be eligibility for Disability. I know it is very hard, but read about and DO detach. This has gone in tooolong! [/QUOTE]
