[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 725867, member: 21895"] Hi Tired Mama; I am so sorry for your need to be here but glad you have found us. You have every right to set boundaries and detach from your adult son with love. It is tough to do and it breaks our hearts but ask yourself if you continue to support him what would change. He has MH issues and drugs will exacerbate this illness. He had capacity to make choices and seek help. Have you tried to attend any support group meetings. NAMI or Naranon are good ones to look into. Privte therapy is also helpful. I do both. I still suffer from depression and PTSD from dealing with my son over the past several years. It is getting better and it will never be easy but it is easier for us to set boudaries and detach. This site has been tremendously helpful for me. I hope you find that as well. [/QUOTE]
