Anxiety girl, did you ever think your son may be acting out because he is in anguish and hates himself? If you don't love him, then why should he? He has attempted to kill himself 3 times. This boy is suffering and needs help and support not hate. Hate never helped anything. Tough love is fine, but it is still love not tough hate. If he is doing drugs and violent towards you then by all means don't let him back into the house. But do it out of love, to help him to reach bottom so he can get into recovery. I have an older brother who is a drug addict and alcoholic. He lives in a crack house and is very ill. He is psychotic as well. I tried everything I could to help him get help, but he refused. I do not hate him and never have. I love him, I just don't love his behaviors and choices. Just some things to think about. Perhaps if you could let go of the hate things would get better for you. Hate never helped anyone.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.
