[QUOTE="standswithcourage, post: 263178, member: 3948"] Oh you all are so smart! I understand now that you put it in food terms! It makes sense. It is just so hard to see someone so pitiful and then wonders why. He is forever working hard is someones yard to buy the drugs he wants and then tries to buy his way into someones house to sleep. I sometimes cant believe that this child/adult would rather live that way - I know he needs help and I can see that others send their children/adults to places that are professional and help with personality disorders, dysfunctional, ADHD, etc. - I cannot afford those places that go through all that - so I think if I have to look over my sons coffin am I going to wonder if I did everything I could? I think I will know that I did. I am coming to a point that I am angry (about time). My sister(no children) and my daughter get steaming mad at me. They are always nice but it hurts them to see me hurt. My sister said "you are such a good person and good mother" dont see why he does this - I can say probably because I let him - but I am trying to say no more - and then I wonder where he is at 3 in the morning - how do I get over that feeling? pretend he is in Gods hands - that I have handed him over yet again and still feel that pain in the pit of my stomach when I feel so helpless and try and remember God is in control - (i know I am rambling - i am not totally crazy) gotta stop and go to alanon!
