[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 621750, member: 59"] Welcome and I'm glad you reached out. Addiction knows no age boundary for sure. You were right to call the police. You have every right to be safe in your home but I also understand your sadness. I am very worried about him eventually abusing you in one of his anger fits. Do you think he is taking pills in addition to drinking? You are not new to this sadly and you have done the right things by joining alanon and making a counseling appointment. You have to take care of yourself now. Your son is a big boy and will have to find help or not but without you. We are a big family here, we understand your fears and sadness and depression. We have all felt it but we have also learned how to live full lives in spite of it. Please keep posting and let us know how you are doing. [/QUOTE]
