[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 733274, member: 4152"] I’m so sorry. Our daughter is mentally ill, so the circumstances are different. But also MUCH heartache and some similarities. These folks who have posted know where you are coming from more precisely. I visited a Families Anonymous mtg and was VERY impressed. Usually parents of adult children , all drug users and all causing extreme havoc. A member told me they always meet. If the mtg is on Tuesday and Tuesday happens to be Xmas , they still meet. Because a parent might be in desperate need of emotional support. I perused your other post...glad you are seeing a therapist. You had no choice but to walk away. Keep yourself safe. If and that’s a huge “if” he shows some signs of an improved attitude, you could consider guiding him toward NA, doctors or getting him gift cards for the Local food store. That’s the maximum I would do and I would only do that IF he showed some clear and significant improvement. IF. Definitely would NOT have him in your house. Blessings for strength and wisdom.
