[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 647601, member: 15832"] AMEN SISTER! You know what I'm talking about! Yes. Fortunately he doesn't call too often so when he does call out of the blue my heart really does start pounding. I've changed my ring tone a couple of times because even the ring tone makes my heart rate go up even if it isn't him on the other end. He usually sends me texts. Families Anonymous has a pamphlet things to say when difficult adult child calls. I have to look for it. Anyway, I have spoken to my therapist, my husband is on board, I put a call in for his caseworker, and that's as much as I can do. I am trying to put the focus on me, I'm really trying, but it's soooo hard to stop thinking about him and his issues. About the phone, COM, I block his number sometimes especially at night. Not that he's abusive with the calls or anything, it's just a way of making my home MY sanctuary. He can call my husband if it's such an emergency (it's got to be a true emergency for him to call his dad, lol) [/QUOTE]
