I feel I'm losing it because I think I should move to Colorado and save him.

[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 702283, member: 15032"] Blackgnat: Can you possibly turn it all off for a while and take a break? Let him spend some time with his dad as they plan. He is only bringing you down and it isn't helping him. I had no contact with my son for a month. It was so good for me. He did talk to his father only. I really needed to do that for me so I could get stronger and work on my detachment. Son reached out to me after some time. He FELT me being gone from his life. I will not engage with him if he is using drugs. Period. I don't want that in my life and if that is what he is doing then I don't want him in my life either. I really mean that from the bottom of my toes to the tip of my head. I am very cautious with my dealings with him. I try to stay neutral. Not high or not low. It will be a very long time - if ever - before I get to that dark place again. My therapist is helping me to see that I can love him unconditionally but our relationship has many conditions. Don't let your son's problems define YOU! [/QUOTE]
