[QUOTE="JayPee, post: 749915, member: 23405"] Thank you all for words of encouragement and your wisdom. I’m in therapy and have been reading good books like it’s my job. I’m trying to focus on myself and detach but AS is like sticky glue. He did apologize but I know he is just manipulative and verbally abusive and in a heart beat will spew his venom at me when I don’t give him what he says I’m suppose to. I’ve just finished a book that says to make the kind of changes I’m attempting that I have to have better more positive self-talk because the old way of dwelling and worrying about AS is dominant right now. But it’s possible to alter that obsessive compulsive thought process about his hunger, homelessness and inability to care for himself by just Stopping it and replacing them with completely other thoughts. I’m only fortunate that the other homeless son is temporarily with ex husband. I’m sorry that he is likely sucking the life out of him but I just can’t deal with the two of them right now. I did a few months ago and was like a drive by atm. I’m a work in progress that’s for sure. [/QUOTE]
