[QUOTE="toughlovin, post: 688045, member: 15801"] RN Just remember it is a process. My son has been where your son is and it really is not surprising. I know you had a lot of hope that this would be it... I think we all hope that when our kids go into rehab. I have learned after my son has been in many many rehabs that it is a process. My son is clearly still struggling so he is not completely there yet either and may never be. However over time and many experiences and many relapses I think he has lost some of the entitlement and has realized that he really is an addict and that he can't just have a little drink (you know alcohol is ok because it is not other drugs but hey I can't even do that). So I have seen a real attitude shift in him but it is still a struggle as my recent posts have shown. So take the time you need for yourself.....and realize it is a process which may be ongoing. I know that is a hard realization to come to....but once you do the individual slips won't get you down so much. [/QUOTE]
