[QUOTE="Kathy813, post: 620320, member: 1967"] Oh, comaheart. I am so, so sorry to hear this. Keep in mind, though, that relapse is very common and even thought of as part of the process of recovery. I think it was Nancy who said she was told that most addicts relapse an average of 7 times before they truly become sober. I'm sure she will be along and let us know if I am remembering that correctly. I understand that your fear of suicide is much more of a real threat since your son has tried to kill himself before. Keep a very close eye on him right now but you can't let him use that threat to emotionally blackmail you either. There is no easy answer here. {{{Hugs}}} ~Kathy [/QUOTE]
