[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 330328, member: 3419"] Welcome, Mama. So sorry you had to find us. You are in the thick of it. I feel for you. You've gotten some great advice here. The only thing I can add is to put a lock on your bedroom door, and strip your son's room of non-essential items. I suspect that nothing you do will work as long as he is using. You are not seeing his real personality. You're seeing the drugs. I am so sorry. One thing I will sugggest is having a date night with-your spouse. You can't control this kid but you can salvage your relationship. Go do dinner and/or a movie. Go for a walk. Force yourselves to not talk about your son for 2-3 hrs. Talk about work, politics, snow, whatever you want, but don't bring up your son, just for that amt of time. It really helps. [/QUOTE]
