[QUOTE="Lee Martin, post: 697556, member: 20675"] I'm a mom of a 41 yr old. Who has been addicted since 15yrs old. It is heartbreaking to see your child walking the streets high, skinny, dirty. Sometimes he would come and say I want help. Of course we would help. He would relape over n over. Sometimes he would be clean for 1 1/2 yrs. Relaspe! 3/2615 he relasped. Kicked out of his home with his sister. Went in to rehaband pprogram for 3mths. Started working,seeing his kids again.One Yr anniversary his family had anniversary party for him. His brother who hadn't spoken to him for yrs was there to show support. 50 family n friends came. This July he relapsed. Said it happens all the time. Well as hard as it is going to be one of our boundaries is if he relapsed again, he will have to leave. 26 yrs (approximately ) is a long time of enabling him. All his siblings are done and worried he might hurt me and my husband. I LOVE him but I'm not helping him.I still see him trying to play the pity. No $$ . No Job. Attitude of if we set boundaries that could make him relapse. It will be his choice not mine. He know's the consequences of HIS action. Hopefully he will continue with his recovery. Making all his N.A. meetings. Doing 12 steps with his sponsor. Praying this will be the time. Love to all of you who have shared your stories . This is very hard to deal with as a Mother who desperately Love's her child. Tough love is our next step I have other family members to also think about. Aloha! Mahalo Nui Loa! [/QUOTE]
