[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 744000, member: 21895"] Hi Copa It is good to catch up. I have one question. How are you? What are you doing for you? I had a wise woman once tell me that her sons addiction was a drug and her addiction was her addicted some. Please do not lose sight of you in all of this. Your son will do what he does. They manipulate and avoid true help in a cagey and street smart almost eloquent manner. We get the effects of gaslighting and get dragged into their drauma. Their life their choices. Your boundaries and expectations are very reasonable. You are not to blame for his life. We give them life we support them and transition the love and knowledge we can, thecreast is upnto tgem. The movie the glass castle always comes to mind a a clear lesson that we have far less influence as parents than we think they do. Our addicts are expert at pulling s thread and unraveling our sensibilities, making us feel like the most trivial of actions towards them have created a tsunami of ill effect on their life. My son earl headed now will say, absolutely none of his accusations and claims he put on us were remotely true. He simply says, “That’s what drug addicts do, we lie and manipulate our way through anything and everything including ourselves for drugs.” None of this ever gets easier. Keep your healthy boundaries in place and take care of yourself. Your son knows how and where to get help. You have taught him well. [/QUOTE]
