[QUOTE="Coping11, post: 676079, member: 19899"] I'm sure that in time, it will become easier for you to share there simply because you will know the people, and develop a closer relationship. That's the way it goes :) I think most people have these "observers" within them - the ability to look at their behaviors and situation, and know right from wrong - is this the way things should be? Am I on the right track? Is this situation good or bad for me? What should I do? People who are devoid of this ability are either severely ill, without the ability to perceive reality (my daughter was like that for many years, unable to understand that she was destroying herself. It was when she started using this "internal observer" that we knew she was improving. I really think you did the right thing by admitting your son to an Residential Treatment Center (RTC). Even if he will go back to his old behaviors after leaving, you have at least given him some period of time in which he was safe and getting the help he needs. This help and treatment eventually accumulates and may lead to a good outcome. [/QUOTE]
