Hi , so sorry to read your situation you are def not alone , in my experience the boundaries that i set re living in our home since my son was 12 to 20 where never respected as he respected the weed and drugs more , when he smashed up my home over and over again ! I eventually had him arrested and handcuffed from within our house ! He was mortified! And thought I’d never do that to him But I was relieved they took him away ! And felt empowered, it worked as he never smashed it up again as he knew I had the police on my side now and only had to ring them

Re the psychosis and deluded thoughts ! Iv now got the doctor and the young intervention mental health act team to support my family and my son if he wants it

In my experience the addict will not except help with mental health until they want it ! Iv had the services in my house waiting for my son to come down from his squat of a bedroom ,, my son now understands that the next bad psychosis deluded episode I can call the team and have him sectioned, and I will too as he is a danger to me and my family in a psychotic state , it scares us all ! My heart beats and feel intimidated ,

Your life and well being will most certainly become strained if your son moves home , you can’t fix him , he has to fix himself , Iv learnt to detach with love ,

One day at a time

Take care always here to chat too ????
