[QUOTE="CrazyinVA, post: 99388, member: 1157"] I think this would be a mistake. Honestly? It seems to me that you're trying hard to detach from your son's situation, but at the same looking for someone else to "help." It's not your place. It's not your problem. The only person you should be helping now .. is YOU! I know some of what this is like. When your life has been consumed by helping your child, so consumed that it's your child's illness/issues that define who you ARE, it's very difficult to move past that. It takes practice, and work, to figure out who you are withOUT your child(ren). For me, it's an ongoing process. Focus inward. Not outward. Not on other people. Focus on YOU. Al-anon will help.
