[QUOTE="nlj, post: 623447, member: 17650"] Hi Pasajes. Sending positive thoughts to you. It must be hard to hear your son sounding scared, that can make it seem like he is a little boy again. Of course you love him and want the best for him. I'm sure that deep down he feels that for you too. Hopefully this will be another step on his road. In the meantime the best that you can do for him is to look after yourself so that you can be a strong presence in the 'outside world' for him. Make sure that you spoil yourself, COM has some nice ideas for doing that. Then when you get to visit him and speak to him on the phone you can genuinely tell him that you are 'ok' when he asks. Then he can concentrate on dealing with his situation and sorting himself out. It's so hard for a mother to feel helpless about her son's situation. Maybe he will realise that he does have a problem that he needs to address when he is released and then you can support him in whatever way is appropriate. Look after yourself. We are all here with you. [/QUOTE]
