Hi Kate I’m so sorry you’re going through this. We do what we do because we love them but like so many have said tough love is sometimes the only answer. We sacrifice our own wellbeing in the fight to help them beat their addiction without a flicker of thanks or remorse on their part. You’d think how bad your son was it would make him wake up but it doesn’t. Every addict has a different threshold I guess and it’s not until that light bulb moment happens will they stop.
I am so grateful for this thread when times are tough, you’re not alone. Keep strong and even though it’s hard put yourself first once in awhile. Xx
