I hope its normal because I feel like you do. When someone I love is hurting themselves this way, I don't want to be a part of it. If your mother thinks she can save him with her love, let her. I know that my grandmother did the same for both of my cousins, the stole everything she had. They are both clean today. I believe in tough love though and prayer. Some people can handle watching the ones they love destroy themselves. Just let him know you love him but don't approve of the lifestyle he chooses for "YOUR BABY". That's all that needs to be said. When he is ready to quit, really ready, he will come to you.
Try to live the best you can without worrying about him. Worrying will only make you sick. I have been down that road and I am glad I am not sick anymore. They are making thins choice to use, they must face their own consequences. My opinion is that if someone is giving them a soft place to land, the longer it will take them to land hard on their ass. I know because my soon to be ex husband has this man that gives him a place to stay, food to eat, a car to drive, actually two cars to drive , a nice jeep and a convertable mercedes, helped him open his own business, funded it, and what happens? He went back to using. He uses everyone that will let him. He is a thief, a liar, a criminal, everything you can imagine, he has done probably. People say its an addiction, yes it is, but it is also no backbone. The man he lives with once asked him why he uses. His answer "Because I want to." It's a choice.
Let him go,let him fall, let him pick himself up. Pray that he asks Jesus for help up on the way.
That is the best you can do for him, you must keep your focus on YOU.
