[QUOTE="in a daze, post: 651793, member: 15832"] I am so sorry. I've had to ask my son to leave as well, the first time in 2011. Then he came back, started outpatient program, got out of control (alcohol was his first substance of choice), to hospital/detox to rehab, released, relapsed the day after, another outpatient program, got a job then more turmoil for a year until he graduated to prescription drugs, called ambulance, admitted and discharged three times in a month then finally sent to rehab and then halfway house. That was in January 2013 and he hasn't been back since. At least the weather's a little better. Small consolation. But you did what you had to do. It's so difficult. Whatever you decide to do, I would not let him live with you ever again, or the cycle will start all over. The lying, the stealing, the manipulation. We've been through it all. Good job in getting some counseling. You are going to need it in the coming weeks. Go to a support group, such as Families Anonymous or Alanon. Read books. Post here as much as you want. Everyone is here for you. [/QUOTE]
