The lull is over the storm has hit!
After the break up with the girlfriend from h*** my difficult child asked for a bus ticket to stay with non drugging friends and look for a job. I bought the ticket and told him it was his birthday present.
He did well there but couldn't find a job. He text me 2 months ago that he was going to NC with a friend and they were doing some construction work. This worked well for 2 months.
The end of August he told me he liked traveling around with his friend and their next job was in TN and they were leaving that day.
I had text him to see how things were and never heard from him. He had been posting on FB that he was suicidal and I'm sure he is definitely drinking and probably drug use. I have no way to contact him.
Yesterday he text me that their truck had broken down and would I send him $150 for a ticket. I text him back and asked where he was and he said Orlando. And when I text asking more questions I didn't hear from him again.
I guess he didn't go to TN with his friend, and no, I will not give him money. I am trying hard to get back into heavy detatch mode, I have a lot to do and it's hard to focus. I know my BiPolar (BP) is sky high so I'm heading to the gym. It is what it is and what will be will be. You can not make them seek help.
My saving grace is my hubby of 13 years is not his father so he is not emotionally attached and it helps tremendously. My heart goes out to our forum members with the younger difficult children. If anyone had told me that I would be going through this for so many years ........................
