[QUOTE="tbod, post: 686223, member: 20297"] He's showing improvement of is self-control over the last year. Of course, there are setbacks...but overall, he's not doing the same things he was doing a year ago (setting fires, climbing out windows at night. etc.) Some set-backs..to include filtering his thoughts and responses. He's getting there. Thinking in time, he'll have enough of his act together to make it on his own. Just not sure how long that will take...no one does. Hes in counseling for the addiction and sees another psychologist for everything else. He knows he doing the vocalizing...and he used to work himself up. Thinking its more of a monologue....but not always. But, it really doesn't seem to hurt anything. And I really don't see him continue to stay spooled up when he does that. I agree with you that pot is like the last think he needs. however, its what his friends are doing, he is 19 going on 20...and if that's what hes going to do..he'll find a way to do it. Just happy for now that he's trying to stay clean and is at least vocalizing his desire to join the military this Summer. We'll see. Might be the best thing for him. [/QUOTE]
