[QUOTE="so ready to live, post: 721591, member: 20054"] Oh Annie. After months/yrs. we do get complacent. We want so much for it not to be starting up again. This is always my go-to thought. I always assume that "I spent that $", "someone else borrowed that thing" The last time my son went through my room, dug for my hidden purse and took who knows what---he accidently left something on my bed where he had done his ransacking. Just didn't see that he dropped it? or did I interrupt his mission? Our counselor said it was fortunate for us that he had done that because we knew without a doubt that he had once again broken our trust. I needed that confirmation to feel sane. We were too kind but not totally weak. He admitted when confronted he had taken medications, but wouldn't admit to money which I knew was gone also. His answer was "mom, it's not living, it's called surviving". So, he is no longer allowed inside our home. I hate it. And I hate that he rationalizes his actions against the people who love him the most and always will. This is a minefield isn't it, no matter where you step... [/QUOTE]
