[QUOTE="Littleboylost, post: 718000, member: 21895"] Nessie; Where are you from. It sounds to me like you might be from the UK...not sure why I feel that but I do. Your son is now 21. He is an adult in all senses of the word. I can tell you I almost did myself in wording and hovering over my son. He is soon to be 18. Same issues as your son drugs and facing charges. I have taken steps to put boundaries in place and detach with love. If my son does not accept our last attempt to support him and get him into rehab. We will be steeping out of his wash and letting him face the consequences of his choices and action. We will be able to do no more for him and yes it will be rehab/jail or death. We don't own his addiction he does, we certainly cdn not cure it and we don't control. It. Try to find some good information about loving vs enabling. It is so very difficult to detach but it is vital for your survival and for any hope of your sons recovery. If he is indeed a harm to himself, I suggest maybe a trip back to the hospital is in order. Hang in there. You are not alone. [/QUOTE]
