[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 554822"] Kathy, glad to see the update. The parents program for DBT sounds good... it is so darned frustrating dealing with the mental health issues and Borderline (BPD) and the substance abuse. We are also dealing with that as you know wiht my son. I think the DBT helped him but then he still went off the rails... and honestly until he is committed to getting help AND staying sober I dont think anything will help him. I can tell from his FB page he is not at all committed to staying sober at the moment... and the frustrating part is you know the substances are what they use to deal with their feelings of loss and emptiness. I so look forward to someday being a grandmother but man oh man I don't want it to be through difficult child.... I still have this hope that he will turn things around somehow and will be able to be a father, but sometimes that hope just feels irrational to me. TL [/QUOTE]
