[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 450821, member: 11001"] Wow Im really glad I read this thread. Because we have been through pure hell with our daughter the last few years, and the pit just got hotter and more deap, "Joy" sounded like a foriegn word to me. As one poster said, "I am only as happy as my unhappiest kid".I miss joy! When my kids were younger we had so much of this. OUr family counselor asks us every time what we have done for ourselves. We report a dinner here or a moment there. Honestly, I just want to get through this and to a point where we can live with more peace than problems. It's hard to greet each day with a "Hell yah, I'm alive and well" when you have so much to do, organize, and etc. to help your difficult child. I have got to try to figure this out, because it will take years off my life if I can't find it. I am thankful, greatful, and optimistic (perhaps naive), but joy? [/QUOTE]
