[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 688127, member: 15032"] I agree Rebelson. I would not give him any ammunition. Our son doesn't say cruel things and sometimes I wish he did. I think then it would help me build a barrier against him being able to hurt me when he hurts himself. Does that make sense? Glad the first day went pretty well. Sometimes it feels good to be in a group and hear everyone else's experiences. Darkwing it's me playing around with the words but not intentionally. He really never labels it but has said in the past he is an addict. When I talk to him next - not sure when that will be - I will let him tell me his feedback on what his counselor told me. I'm sure he'll dismiss everything or play is down. But I have to realize I can't control him nor should I try. I can only control my need to separate myself and my extreme desire to find my own happiness during his struggle. [/QUOTE]
