[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 592566, member: 3305"] Yikes TL, I am sorry for the doubts you are having right now. I must say...I disagree with "hitting bottom often leading to death". That sounds like a shocking statement designed to keep your attention but not necessarily reality, in my humble opinion. For my oldest Prison and then potentially losing his first born was enough to sober him up. Young difficult child is still a toss up but I don't for a second think it impossible for him to sober up too. Look at me and my husband. We have decades of sobriety between us...I lost it for 6 weeks while manic around 8 yrs ago. And you know people with long term sobriety as well...It happens all the time. And not just with medication either. I was sober for many many yrs without medication of any kind. It was only an antidepressant that brought on Manic Behavior that lead to the last time. I believe in your son TL. I think he can do this. While he "may need" medication...he has sure shown a knack for surviving without it so far. (((((((((hugs))))))))) LMS [/QUOTE]
