You are not alone, my husband and I are in exactly the same situation as you with our 22 year old son. I too dread the weekends as soon as he finishes work on a Friday he disappears then until Sunday or Monday, comes back with black eyes etc and full of lies. We have tried everything to help him and he does admit he has an addiction to cocaine but wants to do nothing about it. He just blames everything and everybody. We have had a security camera installed and as soon as my husband and I went away for the weekend there were drug dealers at our door dropping of cocaine at all hours through the night. It is causing so much hurt for us we are at the end of tether with him and don’t know what else to do. I totally understand how you feel, we have thrown him out and he lived in his car for 2 months then came begging to come home so we let him as it was so hard wondering if he was alive everyday, and we thought at least if he is with us we can keep an eye on him and if anything happened to him we would blame ourselves for making him homeless, it’s just such a hard situation on what to do for the best!
