[QUOTE="Deni D, post: 729966, member: 22840"] Thank You Copa, I’ve read so many of your posts. My son did the sober living thing but they were more along the lines of “don’t take medicine because your drug use makes it look like you are mentally ill” people. Now with the actual mental health organization involved it looks a bit more promising for him. They do deal, very heavily, with actual dual diagnosis folks, and seem much more like the kind of org your son is involved with. I so hope they are real and not just a bunch of talk, I’m a bit jaded at this point. But I think they could be a really good fit for him from having a discussion with his case worker, time will tell. I go in and out of the sadness, for a while now. I make excuses for him and fanaticize of how and why he might actually be okay and thriving one day to try to make myself feel better. And then I come to the realization that he thriving is probably going to be a much different definition of thriving than I have if he actually does better in his life. I don't know, working through it….. it’s his path, not mine. [/QUOTE]
