[QUOTE="Baggy Bags, post: 745732, member: 22819"] I don't know, Copa. We have to be careful to not oversimplify our situation/feelings/process/reactions. We want answers. Maybe you're just *used* to feeling desperate and hopeless, but it doesn't sit right with me to bring it all down to that. You are a mother. You love your son. Your son needs help. You want to help him. This is natural. We don't need to justify it. I don't know exactly what I'm trying to say, but I often catch myself finding something to blame in *myself* because it's simpler than trying to find the real answers. Like, "OK, it's ALL my fault because of x, y, z. And now I don't need to keep twisting my brain into a ball trying to understand all this." [/QUOTE]
