[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 731485, member: 19522"] Well, that is difficult news to swallow. I am sorry for your heartache LBL. You have been a champion for your son through all of the ups and downs and sideways of this journey. Now you are at a sort of crossroads that we never reached with my two. There is no doubt in my mind that there was something other than drug use going on, moreso now that it has led them to the dire straights they are living at the present. So, I look at this as a good thing for E. He is getting the help he needs. Who knows if it is a biological issue, or chemically exacerbated by his experimenting with substances? I have read that it can take up to a year to achieve balance after drug use. Maybe more with a younger brain? Whatever the case may be, he is where he needs to be and if willing, can begin to find answers beyond self medicating. Swot and many others have proven that with determination, one can overcome this challenge. It is something no parent wants to hear, and I am sure it knocked the wind out of you. I feel for you dear. I am so sorry for your heartache. There is somewhat of a silver lining to finding answers and treatment and hoping upon hope that your son take those steps towards proper care and lifts himself up and out of the drug haze. It is imperative for you and [I]him[/I], [I]I am convinced of this, [/I]that you and your dear husband in a united front work just as hard, if not harder, at living a full life, taking good care of each other and yourselves. This is a tough battle, you are seasoned warriors. Although it is difficult to lift ourselves up when deep in the trenches, it is so vital to your well being. Make time to do things for you, and each other. Stay strong dear friend. One day, one step, even one little moment, one breath, at a time. (((Hugs))) Leafy [/QUOTE]
