Hi Thank you for replying to my post ! I was not sure about putting a post up it takes a lot ! I was not sure if I would ever get a reply, I stopped looking.

Things have not change, we started talking again, had another fall out, but started talking again. I think at the moment I feel OK !

I think that feeling so alone at times is the hardest thing, it is not like I’m going to tell or talk about what my Son is/does !

Thank for your reply if you ever want/feel you want to relate as you have said you are going through similar please DO !

Take care

Hi. Yes it takes a lot. I had to just take a big breath & post my own in the end. For me, its more about getting it out, but a response is always welcomed. Helps to not feel as alone.

I talk to very few people about it. I try not to have too much shame around it as if it were a medical condition we would just chat, this is not much different, its just our society does not understand the complexities of addiction. He is still my beautiful boy & when I share my story (very rarely, with very few like I said) I see genuine sorrow in peoples eyes. That helps me feel like Im not going mad too.

Also when things are bad with him I am a wreck so I dont talk about him, then i become ill (headaches etc) & cannot concentrate at work etc. So Ive learnt its vitally important to share with someone.

Im here 🙂
