Karisma:
You have to read others' posts here regarding all of this. It will help you. You need to let go, you need to detach.
My son has never been verbally abusive to me but I choose not to talk to him much because he is in an IOP program and probably only going along with it because he knows its in his best interest. I can't handle that HE accepts the person that he is so I am keeping my distance. Of course he is 1500 miles away since March so it isn't real hard. He knows that we love him very much and that is probably WHY I can't deal with all of it.
I prayed for him so hard for so long and then I found this site. And then I heard about Florida via this site and the community of addicts and sent him there. I think this was the answer to my prayers. It gave ME some peace and is forcing him to deal with his issues one way or another. But not ruining my life daily.
If he is so mean to you why see him?
I'm doing this NOW while my son is young, in hopes that we won't be doing all this ten years from now. I can guarantee if he doens't make a big change in himself or I see him diligently working toward a change, I will have little to do with him. Sounds cold. Yes I know but I can't do this anymore.
