326 Thanks

No more open channels
Thanks to everybody...I blocked him again today (27 year old son) and I have no intention of re-opening any channel. Today was his day off and he was drunk and high as usual. He was writing even more abusive things to me, laced with profanity. How many mothers put up with an offspring telling them to F off over and over like In "The Shining?" He told me yesterday he wants to go back to rehab. I told him to go and do so. Then he unleashed. He tells me that so I will tell him he can move back home, quit his job. He changes tactics like some people change socks. He wants to wheel and deal. We did everything we could to prevent him from ruining his life. We owe him nothing now as he is well over 27 now..older than I was when he was born. God, I just want our lives back..with some peace. I realize that peace isn't going to necessarily come from his full recovery and reinstatement in our lives as I had fantasized, but more likely from excising him from our lives so we will not be subjected to his hatred, abuse, bitterness, willful self-destruction and addiction. No more getting physically ill from his posts..no more sleepless nights and anxious days. Though I seriously worry about his state of mind. Some of that "manifesto" written by the shooter in California last month, sounded eerily like things he has written and uttered.
