Hi, I contacted Aquarius and I have my first appointment today, it is for families affected by drugs, hope it helps you.

it easy to blame ourselves but it is the other persons choice and you cannot always have control of whom you fall in love with. Have things improved?

Hi, I feel for your story, except it isn’t a story it is our lives and we all seem to be in the same position. I am attending a support group this evening, I am hoping it will help. I think everyone copes differently, does your son get help for his Self Harm?

I am sorry to hear your story, I have been through the same thing.

Take care

Sue, how do you cope? My son yesterday stole of my niece and he said he would stay away from us all as we treat him like rubbish and we got we wanted, not having him around. He does not see it is actions that cause the reaction. I feel exactly the lady above and I said to my mum last he is unstable.

Hi,

I only joined yesterday but two people commented upon my story and it seems we all go through the same things. I still blame myself and my mum is similar to yours, she takes pity but I have heard it all before. I think by the sounds of it there is nothing you can do that you have not already tried. You have your own children to think about and if he can steal of you all, I am sure he is capable of stealing off your children. Maybe chat to the two ladies who contacted me, they may be able to guide you further. I actually felt a little relief being on here yesterday as I am too ashamed to talk to friends etc. Maybe you won’t be able to help your brother but you can help yourself.

Thank you Sue and Fiona, it is nice to talk to others, I have been to ashamed to tell friends just how bad it is. Like you both my son has done a lot worse than mentioned. As you can both comprehend, these are the children we have nurtured and it seems hard to understand when they have had good up bringing and shown direction. I know it is his choice but I still cry myself to sleep. Lots of hugs to you both and I am glad I was put onto this website. xxx

Sorry for spelling errors I should have re read it back.

I hope you are doing okay. It must be very hard for you. I am going through something similar and it is tearing me apart. I hope he gets clean for both your sakes.

Take care

Emma
