[QUOTE="KFld, post: 92759, member: 2442"] I'm thinking back to the different times my difficult child entered rehab and I think a lot of my day, and maybe the day before was kind of consumed by it at the time. I know with him, he was going because he wanted to and knew he needed help, but he was usually high as a kite in the days before going, thinking it was going to be his last day of using, so he wasn't really capable of doing much to get himself ready. I guess I just looked at it as helping him get to the place that was going to hopefully help him. It's different then if I was helping him pack for a vacation where I knew he was going to be going and getting high. I guess the way to look at it is the part of detatching when you say, when you are ready to help yourself, I will be there to help you. Another way to look at it is, we all handle it in different ways and at the time it's happening, we do what we feel we need to for them and ourselves. [/QUOTE]
