[QUOTE="Shari, post: 284791, member: 1848"] Do some googling. It is possible (and not that hard) to find counselors who will do phone sessions. I came from a very rural area, it happened a lot and tho probably not as good as face to face, it was better than nothing, when needed. Maybe even contact your counselor back in Tx. He/she might be willing to take you on via phone, or able to give you a name of someone else who can. A life coach may be able to help with this. Again, available by phone. I know a good one if you want his name. When you stop wanting to love and be loved, perhaps [I]then[/I] you will be irrepairably broken; you're not there yet. You have been struggling alone for so long, now you have the prospect of TIME to do something for YOURSELF, to find something for YOURSELF. What person wouldn't be giddy about that? Besides that, a fulfilling life, complete with LOVE, doesn't have to come in the romantic variety from some guy. Maybe when Matthew is released from the group home, he needs to move into a living arrangement and not placed back at home with you. He is your son and you love him and want the best for him, but to give him the best, you have to be able to exist, also. The best for you both may be a compromise somewhere in the living arrangements. Just think about it; there may be options. Hugs. You've had a tough row to hoe. [/QUOTE]
