As most of you know my story I will keep that part brief...23 yr old son, moved out last month, has been to detox for alcohol and benzos, uses weed still, not violent or abusive, carries around a lot of shame, suffers from anxiety and depression.
He has been out for over a month now so I don't know what his drug use is currently... but I'm not convinced he is clean, as a one week detox was not enough. We speak almost daily either via text or in person. He is rarely rude and usually expresses remorse or shame about his situation. I am currently away in the US visiting my sister and can't text him. I've asked my husband to please check in on him daily, as I sometimes think I am his only human contact some days. Husband said he sent a strange text yesterday saying he had been to a sage ceremony and blessed by a rabi? Then made a comment to his dad about visiting
"Okay awesome, I'll be by tomorrow! I'm really sorry I wasn't up today. I couldn't handle it even though I was blessed legitimately by a Rabi and continue to pray for Christian values despite Jewish tradition and hatred."
Now.... this makes so little sense to me... he has been basically atheist since a teenager, very turned off by Christian teaching and what he sees as privilege. He also made a comment about aliens a few months ago that made me worry.....
I don't know if he is just a lost soul searching... high... or having some kind of psychotic break?
I am feeling quite concerned. Couldn't sleep last night.....
