[QUOTE="Signorina, post: 571330"] Janet - I always want to hear from you...and that worry box is an amazing suggestion. It's so constructive - which is right up my alley and I never would've thought of it in a million years. It's kind of what I do with my journals- which is often line for line what I post here - I call them "letters to myself" though I should probably call it "posts on the CD boards"...LOL! Writing things out works really well for me and I am going to do it tomorrow! (Someone else was doing a box along those lines - AG?, TL? Nancy? - a long time ago. Maybe it was a figurative box? A support group suggestion? I can't quite remember, just a wee memory in the corner of my head) AND it's a really good excuse to buy a pair of shoes... lol and a little update - he came home early tonight, non altered; had been at an old friends house - a girl who was a good friend of his for years; has a great INVOLVED family, lived close to us, and she is someone I ADORE - they had a true friendship from middle school. (When difficult child started hanging out with partiers and initially got into trouble when he was 16, I intercepted a few old emails from this friend - she was concerned and then ****** off at him for changing his persona and called him on it. His ex girlfriend saw her as a threat and their friendship waned.) Anywho, he named the people who were there, all solid, NICE, neighborhood kids- the people he stopped hanging out with once he starting going out with his now exgf... Just when I am about to give up hope, I get a glimmer...he said all the right things, has no plans for tomorrow night, may go back to this nice girl's house & hang out with old friends, surprisingly he is skipping the alternative rave style concert he usually attends.
