[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 569916, member: 1550"] I have Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) too and panic disorder (among other things). I thought my drug abusing daughter would end up in jail or dead. She did neither. She quit and has been in one relationship for ten years, has her own home, went to culinary school and is a Pastry Chef (making pretty good money too!) and is a wonderful young adult. I never dreamed it would work out so well and I worried myself sick over nothing. It's hard not to, but in retrospect I wish I had stayed more in the present and not projected into the future so far. I was 100% wrong. Your son may really surprise you!!! Stay positive; never give up hope. I am currently helping myself through dialectal behavioral therapy, that I wish had been around long ago. Originally it was for people with borderline personality disorder, but it's being used for everything now. I like the part about mindfulness...living in the present...and how to stay there. Here is a link. Maybe it will help you. I have to read it over and over again! [url]http://www.mindfullivingprograms.com/mindfulness.php[/url] [/QUOTE]
