[QUOTE="Calamity Jane, post: 556813, member: 13882"] Hi, and welcome, Just wanted to say hello, and encourage you and your husband to continue on this difficult road, and to let you know it will get a little easier. You are in a parallel universe, and you're with all of us! We are all trying to navigate and give each other support and encouragement, as well as ideas about what has worked in the past. It seems like you have done everything humanly possible to help your son become a man. He is clearly having substance/mental health issues that he doesn't want to deal with right now, and you will go insane if you allow this behavior in the house. He is spewing lies to get you to give him what he wants - it's scary, believe me, I know. His choices are his own, and right now, his choices are driven by something other than rationality. Your son may or may not change his behavior, and you can't control it. You can control yourselves and what you will or will not allow in your home - that's all. Let him know you love him, and if he's ready for help, he'll know who to call. Good luck, and keep in touch. [/QUOTE]
