Good luck let us know how it goes xx
kate1ParticipantI don’t think anyone who has not been through this could possibly understand the agony families go through. My son was always a bit of a handful and in hindsight the signs were there I just was not aware. I never thought at 29 he would be much further down the road. He has had so much money out of me. How I wish I had made him feel consequences when he was much younger maybe we would not be here now
kate1ParticipantI know I mourne the life he should have had and the life I should have had
On a positive note once again he appears to be trying to pull it around I spent a couple of hours with him trying to sort his debts which I think we have made headway with. I have told him this. Is it if he lets me down this time I’m gone
kate1ParticipantOmg I know. That’s the sort of thing I’d get
kate1ParticipantWell that went well asked him if he needed prescription getting for anti biotics. He sounds like he’s off his face again and ended up telling me to F off and has now blocked me. I just can’t win but I don’t suppose you do with an addict
kate1ParticipantYes that sounds like a plan. I was managing his money and feeding it to him for a couple months he did well then he met a girl and went crazy drinking Coke steroids giving her money. It got very volition with her breaking his windows him having no money for his rent or to get to work. I am so tired of it. He talks to me like I’m a piece of shit. I live him but sometimes I hate him
kate1ParticipantI went off work with stress yesterday feeling a bit better today I know I just have to live with this. I think I may get him to work for next two weeks and say this really is it. He will then have his rent paid and a months money. What he chooses to do then is up to him but I won’t pay again. I think that’s reasonable and I know I haven’t been the reason he loses his home or job if that happens it’s him done it.

kate1ParticipantOmg this is my worse nightmare. My thoughts are with you and your parents. We can only do what we think is best xx
kate1ParticipantCan you not get a key. I have a key to my sons home. If I’m worried at least now I can get in. As for the beer you do what you think is right at the time. Stay strong (says with a laugh. I’m off with stress)
kate1ParticipantHi it’s a good book I can recommend it. It does show how addiction can hit any family and that we really are powerless in this. My heart goes out to you I am in the same boat with my son. As soon as I woke up and remembered my stomach churns. I can’t leave him on his own though. Drugfam tells you to cut off from them. I see how this helps us but I struggle with it
kate1ParticipantThat sound familiar. Yes I worked hard have never really been indebt apart from mortgage usual stuff. My son can’t afford to take his little girl out
When you say you won’t be there next time do you mean you have told him that. I feel I have reached my limit with all this, my life is becoming as chaotic as his
kate1ParticipantHeartbreaking at least he has stuff to sell bless him. It sounds like he recognises what’s happening and wants help. That’s a start isn’t it. It’s upsetting to watch them lose everything My son has nothing left. Just lots of debt That upsets me he has a good job but the money disappears the same night he gets paid he doesn’t pay any bills but the money goes
kate1ParticipantI think that’s the first time he’s really more or less told me this is how he wants to be and nothing I or anyone else can do will change it. Sort of puts a different slant on things slightly. If he ever does get clean I don’t doubt he will be ashamed of how he has treated me and his ex
kate1ParticipantI don’t think he will find his bottom level he’s just text me he won’t be blackmailed into not living the way he wants to because I won’t give him money to get to work till I see some effort on his part. Nothing I can do
