Hi QS, it has been a week now, and no word. This sounds like my two. Same m.o.....It is a hard road we are all on. That is for sure. We all go through a time of review and questioning, if we had -done this, done that, not done this, not done that......it is a grieving, and we are sifting through every little thing trying to answer an unanswerable question. Why?
When the real answer is that our d c's may or may not have mental health issues, but they do have free will. They have chosen this path, and we as parents, have absolutely no control over their choices. We can step in and try to help, try to fix, try to rescue, but it is never enough, because they have to want change for themselves.
I agree with SWOT, he will contact you, be back in your life.
I will echo this, be good and kind to yourself Quick, build yourself up and try not to fall into the guilt and blame game.
You did the best job you could as a loving parent. You have bent over backwards to try to help.
It is up to him to take the steps to figure his life out, thusly, for all of our adult d c's regardless of their issues with mental health.
Enjoy the peace, focus on yourself, your husband and daughter.
A New Year is coming!
