[QUOTE="Ascending, post: 762485, member: 29778"] Thank you all for your replies! I am going to reread them more carefully probably tomorrow when I can also respond better! A couple of things that jumped out... 1 is I did pm or try to the one of you with a good online support group 2 my son was not actually removed from home . It was very lucky perhaps that it happened as it did, but while I was locked in house hiding from him and on phone with 911 dispatcher, he started to try to break in, then sent a text message to please open door so we could have a hug and make up. I then wrote that I needed space. He wrote something about calling a locksmith to open the door. There was then some silence during which I thought either he was contacting a locksmith or searching for hidden keys or considering using an axe he’d been using on trees... instead the next thing was a text saying he had left and was never coming back Second text ... to earth In a sort of vaguely ominous self harm threat kind of sound. So I related that to dispatcher who asked for car description etc. The Responders caught him along road, questioned him, decided he was not an imminent threat to self or others . They got a message from me to him that I love him but needed space and asked him to spend night with friend. So I managed not to have to deal with guilt trip or worrying that he was perhaps going to kill himself. And also that he seemed fine as far as any drugs for driving and not endangering others. Have meeting, more when I can!!! ❤️❤️🙏🙏 [/QUOTE]
