[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 76829, member: 3305"] Oh goodness I remember when my sons first went into drug rehab at 13/14 years old. Boy was I devastated. That's when I found the board. We only had a 4 hour round trip and we went to visit 2 times a week. Once was for individual therapy the other for family group night. On one weekend a month we did rope exercises, symbolizing trust issues, etc. I was so very codependent on my sons and wanted to blame someone for their condition. I ended up turning on my husband and by the end of Rehab, or a few months later, was at the breaking point with husband. We nearly divorced. I think it's very important to remember that addiction is a disease, not personal or because of mom and dad not doing their very very best! I would just listen closely to what the councelors tell you is best to do from your end. I know you miss your son, I remember just bawling on the stair case and barely being able to look in their rooms without sobbing on their beds. hugs and stay well, Tammy [/QUOTE]
