[QUOTE="welcometowitsend, post: 587827, member: 14356"] MWM - You are right. Fortunately he does not suffer from psychosis so ultimately he is going to have to make these decisions for himself. I sure hope that my son makes the same choice your daughter and you did - to get well. RE - Thank you for your kind words. I read what you wrote to JKF and really thought I could apply it to my thinking with difficult child. When I was praying last night I guess I was sort of sending him love - it was certainly better than festering in the worry and eventually helped me to sleep. I am definitely going to try and implement your idea - I think it is a wonderful way to help get me and difficult child into a better place. And if I am sending him love in my thoughts then my words are likely to come all out of love too (instead of out of worry and anger - which, naturally, they sometimes do). I sent him my text and he responded. He actually seems to be in a pretty good mood today. He told me he didn't get fired, he got a raise. I doubt that. Your job at the fast food joint doesn't call you in to work on a holiday Sunday evening to give you a raise. But I took it for what it was, didn't argue, told him I loved him again and wished him well at his guitar lesson tonight - which I really hope he goes to. Whether or not he still has a job is ultimately his problem and will come to light with the truth soon enough. [/QUOTE]
