[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 388576"] All the comments re: how much he has hurt you and how he can't talk with- you sounds a little abusive to me. He's a young adult. He should know better.... if he is abusing drugs...he should seek treatment for this and let go of an issue with- you. If he has had too much stress in the recent past...same thing. He should ask a physician or a therapist for their opinion and help. This is what adults do when they are experiencing something overwhelming and my guess tough times has come often for him since he is a difficult child. True, he may have literally experienced extra very rough times of late. But it doesn't change things...much...might not change them at all. He is still his own keeper. And if he has an issue with- you in the past...he is free to discuss this with you. My guess is you would be willing to talk about anything in the past anyway. I did not read every last detail of this...but my gut tells me that as best as you can...detach from the drama. Do what you might do to provide help, but remove yourself from the drama-trauma 100 mph. If your son ends up in the same ER as your husband, is their a physician on call that could help out? I am sorry for this. It is an extra burden for you and your husband. Sending good thoughts. The Serenity Prayer does help. (hugs) [/QUOTE]
