[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 644069, member: 18516"] I'm sorry you are going through such a difficult time. It is never easy to watch our children suffer no matter what age they are but this is also where we need to separate the "child" from the "adult". Your son is legally an adult and it has to be his choice to get help. Please understand that this is nothing you did. It is very common for parents to feel guilty when their adult child ends up have serious problems and issues. I'm sure you did the very best you could in raising him and like all other parents I'm sure you made some mistakes too, but that is no reason to blame yourself. Keep reading the posts on these pages as there are years of experience here. ((HUGS)) to you. [/QUOTE]
