Hi, so sad reading your story. I’m sorry I can’t offer any advice but I feel your pain about trying to have a relationship with your son and finding it difficult. My son is 28 and is addicted to weed and alcohol. He still lives at home and is unemployed and I am struggling. He did succumb to cocaine but managed to beat that on his own and has been clean from it about 8/9 months, although he has confessed he does still get texts from his dealer but so far has resisted. The alcohol changes him. He gets nasty and aggressive and blames me for everything that has gone wrong in his life. When he is on one of his rants he wants me to accept blame and apologise for things in the past. He cannot let things go. He also says he behaves the way he does because of the way I am towards him and wants family counselling so that the therapist can see what he has to “deal with” and then maybe I can change so that he can too. My son is waiting for help from ARC but they don’t offer family therapy, just support for the addict and I’m struggling to find someone who might be able to help. I saw your post refers to “fa mtgs” and wondered what that is?
