[QUOTE="lovemysons, post: 743525, member: 3305"] Dear Esther, So good to see you but I am so sorry your son is giving you problems. I hope you'll share and get good feedback and support. I know how rough it can be especially around the holidays when we just want love happiness and peace. Our Thanksgiving was a very small gathering this year. Son my mom and her boyfriend. Daughter is embarrassed by our son and didn't want our son to be around her new in laws. Oldest son will not bring his son to our house to visit unless young difficult child is no longer living with us...likely because of the mental illness issue. Oldest son never wants talk of MI issues around his daughters. Speaking of oldest son...last December he was manic and had about 4 projects going on at same time in his home. His wife was scared and called us. We went to his house and there in the middle of the living room floor was a loaded gun! Scared me to death! Unfortunately I started smoking again that day after having stopped for almost 2 years. Oldest son has been sober and going to AA meetings for around 6 months this time. So you can see both of my sons are still struggling with addiction/mental illness issues. But it's strange... One is the homeless type introvert with no drive to work while the other is the born salesman type outgoing driven to work hard etc. Love to you and yours Esther.... I hope the situation improves soon. LMS [/QUOTE]
