[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 712163, member: 1967"] If you could push him down the wrong road then you could push him down the right road. The truth is that you can't push him anywhere. He is deciding the path of his journey and there is nothing you can do to change the trajectory. Hopefully, he will get to the point where he wants to make the change and he will. Until that time, all you can do is set boundaries and protect yourself and your home. The reason that the mental health services might be saying that there is nothing wrong is because they feel the real issue is substance abuse. Until that stops, you really can't get a correct mental health diagnosis. I am sorry you are going through this. ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
