[QUOTE="janebrain, post: 182857, member: 3208"] I'm afraid I'm thinking along the same lines as Donna and others. What progress have you made if you are worrying about how he will get his GED and how he will get to the job, etc. Yes, these sorts of thoughts are common with me regarding my dtr and son who are out on the west coast. But when they come I remind myself that it is not my problem and they will have to figure it out on their own and I go on about my own business. And what is there to be so happy about if in-patient is recommended and he obviously wants nothing to do with it? The only solution for you that I can see is to truly let go and I surely don't think there has been a lightbulb moment yet because I see no signs of letting go. You are still right in there trying to get him to do what you think he should do while he does whatever he wants. When you really do understand you will feel a huge burden lifted from your shoulders. You will understand that you have absolutely no control over this situation and you can let it go. Sorry, Jane [/QUOTE]
