Broken Mama

I am so broken. My son has mental health issues and has been in and out of institutions for 8 years. He was doing so well. .Hewas out for 5 months, working and got off parole. . He was just charged with several robberies and was there when his girlfriend stabbed someone. I can't take this:( He called me crying and can't remember what happened. He is bi-polar, borderline schizophrenic and has PTSD. He turns 19 tomorrow. Please prayer for our family. His name is Eli. Thank you.

  • I am so sorry for your pain. I am new to this as well. My son is also 19 and was sentenced to 10 years. I am appealing his plea deal. I am so broken and hurt I just can't sleep eat. I went to get visitation I have not seen my son in 3 weeks. He is traumatized and really don't know how he is going to cope. My son has never been in trouble just one incident ruin his entire life. I will be praying for all of you God is a good God.
  • Mary Ann, I feel your pain. It has made me feel inadequate when I can't help my son's pain and I've been yearning to find someone else going through the same ordeal. We will walk through this together and stay strong...I will be praying for you and your son as well. I have felt so alone in this, despite my family and friend support I still feel alone. Thank you Mary Ann...
  • I feel broken too, but it sounds as though you've had a really rough 8 years. My heart goes out to you. I've been dealing with my son's mental health issues for over 25 years. It's exhausting. It has aged me. His arrest over a year ago just about did me in. I will pray for you , my dear. I will think of you when I feel like I'm "done" and can't keep doing this. We CAN keep doing it because we have to. I'm new to this site. I'm looking for women who understand my brokenness. I understand yours
  • Thank you ladies so much....it truly means the world right now.❤
  • I'm so sorry.
  • sending prayers to you and your son.

  • I will keep Eli and your family in my prayers.  I understand 'broken' far too well.
