[QUOTE="Tanya M, post: 686360, member: 18516"] My son posted a message to my FB wall. He says he's in a lonely spot in life. That he is a vegan, doesn't drink, no cigarettes, no caffeine, and that he doesn't steal. (his drug of choice is pot but there is no mention that he's stopped that) He goes on to say he's alone and is getting left behind, no one to talk to. He and his girlfriend have separated. He tells me he's so lost, that he doesn't know how to live, doesn't know what his purpose is and that he's scared. He says he walks around 10-15 miles a day with a 50 pound pack and no where to go. I replied to him via private message and deleted his post from my wall after copying it. I told him that I was sorry to hear he was having a tough time. I told him I pray for him and hope he things will work out for him and that I love him. You know I have been successfully detached from him for several years but it's still hard when I get a message from him like this. I have to stand firm in my resolve. I cannot fix things for him. I know this is typical of him. When he's feeling this way he reaches out to me but any other time, I'm not even on his radar. It's so frustrating that he's 34 years old and can't figure it out. I am so grateful for this site and the support that is here especially at times like this. [/QUOTE]
