    It's happening again.....

    Pigless, You are correct. I know it logically, but at times might heart fights it. I have to visit the state where my son is in jail this weekend for other matters. I am not going to visit him. It feels like a relief to not have to deal with his situation or seem him in that environment. I am...

    It's happening again.....

    So.....my son is possibly facing 2+ years in prison for his latest stunt. He is in jail in another state. His next court hearing is Sept 12 and unless he gets bailed out, he will sit there until then. After that who knows what will happen or what his sentence will be. I am just trying to take it...

    It's happening again.....

    My son just called. And tried to tell me the "story" of why he was arrested. Apparently he had just gotten home from work and he and his girlfriend were just hanging out having a good time. Then suddenly some "guy" appears at their front door and some kind of confrontation takes place. The "guy"...

    Thanks Lucy, I have texted the last few numbers that he was contacting before his phone went off in early November. No response as of yet. I dont know any of his "friends". I appreciate your response. This is tough but its so helpful that you and others here understand.

    Hi all, I havent posted in quite a while but read all of your posts daily. Thank you for all the strength and guidance you provide. My son has been homeless for nearly two years now off and on. He has not lived at home during that time. I would usually see him on occasion and at least hear...

    Stories of parents and estranged grown kids...wow.

    I agree 2much, My difficult child is my only child. Its very confusing to hear him tell me how horrible I was. I start to think maybe I was. It makes me lose all trust and faith in myself:(

    Practicing Gratitude :)

    In my yoga class the other day, the instructor read a quote about gratitude - "The surest path to misery is to desire what you don't have and ignore what you do have". I have been thinking about that alot and using it as my mantra to practice gratitude:)

    Feeling hopeless

    Hi JKF, I just wanted to let you know that I am thinking of you. I know just what you are going through. My difficult child's story is almost identical to yours (I guess all of our difficult child's are pretty much the same). I dont have anything to add as all those that have posted have given wonderful words of...

    Call from social worker

    JKF, I know how hard it is to see them homeless but it is his choice not yours. My son is homeless right now as well.. He was released from jail last week. He knows he cant come home. I dont know where he is sleeping, eating, etc. You are right, I think COM's suggestion about reflecting on...

    Is anyone awake

    He ended up finding a "friend" to stay with. Havent heard from him today. I am exhausted. Didnt get to bed until 2 and up at 5:30 for work. Its hard to have a full time job and deal with a difficult child! Again, thank you all for being here for me. It really helped to reach out last night and have you...

    Is anyone awake

    As far as his plans he has none. He stays homeless by choice because he refuses the help he so desperately needs. I have been to the ends of the earth trying to help him. Sent using ConductDisorders mobile app
