2468Participant
We all feel the same it’s a never ending worry I’m away at the moment but can’t stop thinking about my son as havnt heard from him today so worrying. I wish I could walk away sometimes but I can’t but as all of us it consumes our life’s. I’m so sad sometimes
2468ParticipantI found support groups on Internet or your dr would now. I know how you feel I’m at my wits end my family have given up on my son my husband dosnt want to know him he his step dad but dosnt support me either I feel like disappearing but I’m his mum and so scared he going to hurt himself or kill himself what I would do if that happened I don’t know it’s such a stressful life and only people going through it understand. We all need to sound off
2468ParticipantI have my son here with me now iv made him some food we have just discovered he stolen yet again from us it never ends the lies the stealing the I’m sorry mum it means nothing I want to walk away bit I can’t I feel like I’m stuck in a nightmare and it’s drugs who win we can’t while they do it. I feel your pain uf not alone
2468ParticipantMy love it’s so hard to watch for you and no one understands unless they living it I am with my son and I’m heartbroken and helpless but we are not alone that is some comfort for us.
2468ParticipantYou are not a bad mother or partner all we do as a mother is our best and we are stuck in the middle all the time I’m in turmoil all the time and it gets harder like u I love my son and feel guilty about my partner going through it but we can’t be blamed all the time.
2468ParticipantHow did he get into rehab has he been before its a nightmare for us all partners mum’s like me familys in general I want to be able to find the answer but it’s not there its down to them to stop it we just pick up the pieces and the pain dosnt stop
2468ParticipantWe deserve peace iv spent another evening crying as my son dosnt leave me alone asking for money all day long lying calling texting all day every day yes I give in some days at a loss if what to do feel so weak with it all I have no life he consumes it all. Sorry I’m ranting got to find peace somewhere.
2468ParticipantThank you for your relpy yes my other children are all affected by it all they are older and have lived it for a long time and I feel guilty for that too. Where it will end who knows
2468ParticipantHow are you both doing my son lost yet again another job I really think he dosnt want to work he just thinks I will supplie his money. We have to gain some strength and stop enabling them but where from I don’t know I feel so weak from the constant battle. My marriage and family are a mess and my son just carries on
2468ParticipantI hope like me writing it down just helps a little bit. My family are sick of the stress my son brings and the fact he consumes my life and I don’t know how to stop it. I am going to sort councerling for my self to learn some coping strategies I give in to him to much I know and all they say about him most of it is true but as a mum we find it so hard. I hope like me you can get a bit of comfort just talking on this we all know what we should do its doing it.
2468ParticipantMy son is 30 and he sleeping on floors at a mates as the stealing is getting worse he smokes drugs and iv had it for 17 years and like you I’m broken financially and emotionally and feel so bad my marriage to his step dad is a mess and he dosnt want it anymore and I won’t turn my back on my son completely so I do feel your pain . I like you feel lonley as no one can help. I want to run away but it dosnt go away no matter where u are day or night. U are not alone but u feel it. I hope just talking like this helps a bit
August 22, 2018 at 8:24 pm in reply to: SOS HELP! dealing with a drug addict for the first time… #101462468ParticipantI’m sorry this is happening to you it sounds like heroin but I’m no expert it’s so hard as they are our blood but treat us so badly and lie all the time. Mine is my son and the pain never stops u could call frank they could give u advise any help at all helps a bit good luck
2468ParticipantI agree totally the help is so flimsy for us and them unless u can go private. You have to wait so long to get councerling. People forget no matter what they do they are still our son who we love no matter what but we suffer so much. My husband is his step father and can emotionally detach from it throw him out is his answer I never like you stop worrying don’t want him with me but don’t want him not with me if u understand what I meen we live in a small town so would always see him around .we not at stage u at but he sleeping on floors in houses I wouldn’t stay in my husband dosnt seem to care. It tears us apart slowly. People have no idea I’m a nurse in a gp practice so see it a lot. Do your like me hate to hear people talk badly about him it hurts to hear it. Sorry if I’m babbling
2468ParticipantMy son is 30 he steals from us porns our stuff asks for money daily. Iv paid debts for him which I pay back to bank monthly I’m struggling to keep it together he lies all the time it never ends I want to walk away but at the moment I can’t. I really wish I wasn’t his mum sometimes and that hurts me my other kids are all fine and fed up with it all they all left home so they get away from it as a mum we can’t can we. It must be so hard for you but I understand why no one can understand if they not living it no matter what they say. I cry daily just want it to stop pain never goes away or fear of what’s to come. I really understand where ur coming from what upsets me is no one can help us really pls don’t fall shame we are not to blame we do our best
2468ParticipantI am the same i give my son money I know it’s wrong I just don’t know how to cope watching him anymore. It’s consuming my life but I’m his mum it’s alright theses people saying what we should do its doing it im not strong enough at the moment.
