I have posted here in the past, not much, because sometimes talking about the way things are just hurts. But I read daily, and I wanted to thank you all for sharing your wisdom and strength.
My son is 23 years old and just got arrested for possession of heroin and assault. My heart is absolutely broken and I can’t remember any time in my life where I felt that low (including when I found out he was using). His lawyer (who I paid for) will try getting them to send him to rehab. I hope to say that I can detach myself and protect myself, but it’s just too difficult sometimes. I haven’t even visited him yet and I don’t know if I will. It’s just too much. This is not how I raised him.
