[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 747209, member: 15032"] Welcome Tired! I agree with Momma, your son is an adult. He is abusing drugs which means he's a mess and sounds like wife a mess also. Using drugs is not a way to cope with life. Until he figures this out, he will not get better. It's hard to watch our adult children struggle, all of us here know that because we have done it. Rescuing him will not help him in the long run. Hopefully by losing his marriage he will see that HE needs to change and make healthy choices so HE can reclaim his life. Lives of people that abuse substances always implode. There's just no way to live a normal life when drugs are involved. Drug users are surrounded by drama all the time. I agree that you need to have self-compassion and take care of yourself. I understand your need to want to take his children but that seems like a lot also but that would also be my first priority.
