[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 30749, member: 3388"] As I always say, when it rains it pours!!! For what it's worth, I think you did the right thing throwing Ant out. He is an adult now. He has to make his own choices. You deserve to be happy. You deserve not to have to live like this!!! I think detachment is all that you can do. I know how much you love him and how much he hurts you. I know you want what is best for Ant. Ant needs to want what is best for Ant. You can't help him if you enable him by allowing him to live with you and drink. By throwing him out, you're not enabling him to be an alcoholic. in my humble opinion, you're actually helping him. I know how hard it is living with an alcoholic. Years ago, I had a SO who was an alcoholic. He wanted to get married and start a family. I loved him dearly, with all my heart, but I left him. I know this is different. Ant is your son. However, only Ant can change Ant!!! Please don't feel we're sick of hearing about your problems. We're here to help when we can or just provide a cyber shoulder to cry on... I know you're going through a very rough time. I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers that things will get better for you soon [img]:angel:[/img]... I'm also keeping Ant in my thoughts and prayers [img]:angel:[/img]... I pray he finds a better path to travel on... Sending cyber hugs. [img]:flower:[/img] WFEN [/QUOTE]
