Hi everyone.
I havent been on for a while, If you remember my last post was that I was feeling guilty as I had booked a holiday and my son had asked to live with me to help him keep his job, and I was worried he’d lose it when I was away. Well it lasted a week before I went away. He went to work came home and went out and came back late. Wanting me to leave the door open till all hours. Obviously we had words and he stormed out. He then didn’t go to work and then rang me the day before my holiday asking me to leave the door open so he could stay here while I was away. For once in my life I was strong and said no. I told him he was 32 and shouldn’t need his mom to get up for work, he was his usual abusive self told me I was horrible wanted him to fail and slammed the phone down. I actually didn’t feel guilty as why should I go on holiday worrying my house is open.and he probably wouldn’t have gone to work anyway. When I came back from holiday which I enjoyed and had a good rest, he rang me to say he had been given another chance at his job but agreed he couldn’t live here. I told him I was no longer helping him with money to feed his habit and he needed to leave me alone as I had a long time to think about everything and was not standing for his behaviour anymore. Let’s see how long I can last. Sorry to hear about your sons relapses I know the feeling of 4 days that’s how long my son goes before I know where back on the drugs. I would like to thank you all for advice that is on here, your making me stronger and helping me to stick up for myself. We are all stronger than we think, we have been through so much.
