[QUOTE="Lost in sadness, post: 713575, member: 21056"] Thank you SWOT! You talk so much sense and so clearly. It reads so obvious, so right, it gives me strength and for a while it works. Then slowly it creeps back. The hurt, the pain, the guilt that he is alone, the worry that it will all be too much for him and he 'checks out'. The tragicness of it all! More than anything, the thoughts that maybe he cannot help it. Maybe he is ill and needs help. It certainly isn't 'normal' behavior. Who would choose this sh*t over a family, a home, being cared for! It doesn't make sense. It is abuse, I know but then again I have said things back in despair, not always nice things. I feel sometimes maybe I have pushed him to be like this, because I won't let him home and he has nothing else. My husband reminds me he has now been in 8 different places and still nothing has changed. Its just so hard. I am being much firmer with him and feel proud of myself for it, He messaged me today at 3pm this afternoon asking me to go and visit him. I told him 'no'. I reminded him I was free this morning to see him not at 3pm in the afternoon when he has just got up and that I would now not see him until Monday as I was working tomorrow and out all weekend. He did not reply. A hostel, in the UK is somewhere for homeless people. This is a young peoples one and it really is HORRIBLE!! FILTHY, SCARY, They all sit around drinking, doing drugs. No visitors. YUK! I feel sad he has nothing and no-one, away from everyone and worry what he will do for three days on his own. I pray, not mix with the other low lives at this place xxxx [/QUOTE]
