[QUOTE="nlj, post: 631679, member: 17650"] Hello Dalyce I'm so sorry for your grief. I think you know what would be best for you to do at the moment, that would be to stop the visits. I think many mothers on this site would tell you that it is time to take care of yourself. These visits are not improving matters with your son and they are affecting you badly. We understand that you want a relationship with your son and that you want the "nice" son to come back again, but only he can make this happen. You have no control over this. Maybe you need to let him reach his rock bottom, his 'turning-point', and hope that your nice son will find his way back to you. In the meantime you probably need to try and detach from him and focus on finding ways to look after yourself and enjoy life again. It is so hard to accept that your child has not grown up as you wanted or expected. I will read through your other thread again. I hope you found the responses to your other post helpful. There's no 'quick fix', it's hard work to find a way to deal with these troubles. Sending hugs. x [/QUOTE]
