[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 332077, member: 1233"] Have you called a domestic violence center for an appointment, or just driven to one and walked in? They WILL help you. It is FREE. You NEED it. ASAP. Today you should look online or in the phone book for domestic violence centers/shelters. You do not have to move there to get help. They can help you find a lawyer to get your son's name off of your home's deed. They can advocate for YOU in court. They may even be able to help you get your son into rehab. Find one TODAY. If you cannot go there today, sit and think about what you need to do to go there. Do you need a certain outfit washed? A book to take in case you need to wait? To type up what has gone on and how you feel. Whatever is holding you back from getting this help, give it a name. Write it down on paper. Then decide if you will continue to let it hold you back. Pick a day in the next week. Any day. Make arrangements so that you can get there on that day. If you want accountability, come here and tell us your day and time. The one you decided on. We will encourage you and even be the angels on your shoulder helping you through it. I promise. Just watch out, cause that many angels can be tiring on your shoulder. Sometimes you have to make us switch shoulders or fly around or put us in your purse. You don't have to DO anything to go to the DV center. No appointments, no special stuff to bring. Just show up. You also MUST go to alanon or narc anon. They will be listed in the phone book and online. Just google alanon and your town. Pick 3-6 meetings to attend this week. Again all you need to do is just show up. You can figure out what types of meetings they have once you are there. They will help. You need to go to 3-6 meetings because they won't all be the right fit for you. Each meeting is different and has a different dynamic, even if some people are at each meeting. Just go until you find one that is comfortable for you. You don't even have to talk or read to attend. Terry posted a good report of her alanon meeting. I cannot remember the title thread, but it is still in the first page. You will be SHOCKED by the love and support you will find in the right meeting or meetings. PLEASE go and do these things. They will help save your sanity and your health. Is the stay away order to keep difficult child from being around you for 5 years? YOU need to follow the order also. I am sorry that this is such a nightmare for you. The meetings will help you cope and recover. Many hugs. [/QUOTE]
