[QUOTE="Tiredof33, post: 585859, member: 13558"] I had really let my difficult child's actions affect my health. It did nothing for him, only made me sick. I am still doing the 'difficult child dance' with a 34yo and I just can't do it any more. I wish I had learned to detach much sooner. My difficult child stills asks for money and when I refuse he threatens suicide and sends nasty messages. I have called the police when he talks about suicide and he tells them he is not. He may actually do it one day. He posts strange messages on FB and he is in the relationship from h***. She is just like him, if not worse! Do not give up hope, EVER, but do learn to detach and face the fact that there is nothing you can do for him unless he wants you too. The lack of control was hard for me to accept. I have given mine plenty of numbers for help and he just lies and says he is going. So I finally accepted he is an adult and all of the worrying I was doing doesn't help. (((huggs only a parent going through this can understand the pain))) [/QUOTE]
