Adult alcoholic son

Well he finally showed up to my house and told me he hasn’t eaten since Tuesday but he has been drinking. We just got back from rehab on Monday. He was still wearing the same clothes he had been wearing in rehab. I have strep but I still cooked for him. He got mad because I made him go back home. His apartment looks like a drug house and he said he isn’t capable of cleaning it. He’s a 27 year old man. He even brought clothes because he thought I would let him stay here. I gathered up some food and kicked him out. I feel like the worst parent ever. Did I do the right thing? He has a job but won’t go to work. He’s almost out of money. I know he will be back tomorrow expecting to lay around and eat. I’m too sick to fool with him right now. I started crying and he hugged me and said sorry for being a pos.

Return from rehab

I just found out that my son only called me from rehab because his therapist made him. But she expects me to help him clean his apartment, it looks like a drug den, and support him in staying sober. I want to help him. I’m actually paying for his trip home but I am not really feeling like helping someone who doesn’t even want to speak to me. I wish she didn’t even call me because not I am pissed off and this is my only day off for the next seven days. Why can’t he just straighten up and stop depending on me so much. I’m about ready to cut him off completely.

My 27 year old son is coming home from rehab Monday. I am really excited about seeing him but I am really nervous about his sobriety. His apt looks like a drug house because he stopped cleaning it months ago. I did buy him cleaning supplies but I left the mess because he needs to be held accountable for his actions. Im worried it will trigger him when he gets home. His therapist at rehab wants me to help him clean it so we can bond. I want to help him but this is his 3rd trip to rehab. Can someone please help me figure out what to do? Thank you 😊

My son is currently in rehab but will not contact me until he needs something. I’m sick of being treated like this. He will be expecting me to drive over 4 plus hours one way to pick him up. I’m tired of being used, what can I do????
