Don't know how much more I can take


My son was released from the hospital yesterday and I met up with him in the afternoon. He is so depressed....broke, jobless, difficult living situation. I bought him lunch; spent some time with him and when we parted ways he started to cry. It broke my heart. He had confided in me that he had been thinking of hurting himself. At least he is not living alone. For that I am grateful.

Today he's supposed to start his intensive out-patient therapy. I hope to God that he went. I am worried, sick, and scared.

Crying....praying.

I know I know how painful it is. I will maybe see my son Friday with his dad. They are going to move his things out of the apartment. I don't even want to know where my son is going but I hoping to a safe place to park his car to live in. I pray he might think about selling it because he does have a chance to get into a halfway house if he can come up with the 100 a week. His car can do this for a few months.

Prayers for you and yours son right now......keep the faith my friend.

(((( hugs ))))

Cathy -

I will pray for your son and for a good outcome. It's so very painful. I feel so helpless.

Thank you my MIP friends....I am not alone.

Many prayers for you and for your son. This is not an easy road we're traveling. You were there. You showed him care. You let him go. His HP is with him. And your HP is with you. And we are, too, Rose. You're not alone.

Brand new; just registered. Crying with you but over my son, screwing up my courage to make him leave my home. I just can't do the codependent addiction dance with him anymore.
