[QUOTE="nvts, post: 275634, member: 3814"] To Heartsick's Beautiful Girl: I know that your mom said that you were reading the stuff that was written here and you got pretty upset. I'm sorry that your feelings were hurt and hope that you're feeling better. I'm not sure that your mom will let you read this stuff again, but I thought that you should know a few things. Your mom joined the group here with the hope that she could find some kindred spirits (basically people who have a common type of life like she has right now). We're a great group (if I do say so myself! :winking:) and understand a lot of what both you and your mom - as well as the rest of your family - are going through. Unfortunately, even in this advanced day and age with all the technology and capabilities that are in this world, no one ever knows exactly how to help a wonderful young lady such as yourself. From what I've read that your mom was able to tell us, you're bright and really want to be happy. I can't imagine that you WANT to react to things the way you do nor do I think that you really KNOW how to react the way everyone wants you to. So, your mom came to us so that she can accomplish a few things. One is to figure out what's going on with you. Two is to be able to help you move on and become the successful woman that she KNOWS you can be once you're able to get a handle on things. Three is to be able to hug you and hold you and know that you're happy to have her do these things. Do me a favor...if you think you can, next time you just feel like you're going to explode, try to count to 10 like this: 1 calm, 2 calm, 3 calm, 4 calm, all the way up to 10. If you're REALLY hacked off and you need a little more time to chill out, after you get to 10 calm, do it backwards: 10 calm, 9 calm, 8 calm all the way down to 1. Take deep breaths while you're doing it and see how it goes - you could try it first with little things that bug you and get really good at it. I hope you feel a little better. Your mom is a really good egg that loves you sooooo much. Have some patience with her AND yourself - it goes a long way! Good luck hon! Beth [/QUOTE]
