Hey, son not using because he's been in and out of jail. He got married last summer, great party, nothing changed . He still thinks he can beat the system even after 15 years. He got a pass last Tuesday, got stabbed..round and round. Good news, I'm healthier, had to really assess my codependency and detach, some days tougher than others

Mom- -I can relate! My codependency issues brought to my knees- brought me to a new level of recovery and with everyday that I continue to detach with love and set boundaries with my adult son the lessons keep comng.

It's hard to believe when you are new to this disease, we want to think our situation is unique, sadly it isn't. I learned so many things when I was first here, 90 percent I didn't follow until I realized what I was doing was failing
