[QUOTE="Hopeful97, post: 678760, member: 19678"] Walrus, I am going through very similar circumstances right now too. We have to remember to take care of ourselves, I was physically I'll for approx 3 months (last summer) dropped 5 sizes (a terrible way to loose weight). The stress and anxiety that the chaos of our d c s causes is not worth our mental and/or physical health. We are getting older and quite frankly I am aging fast enough I do not need any extra help. Remember what you said "I have decided ........"that is absolutely correct YOU decide when there will be contact. You can do it. It's very hard sometimes and sometimes I talk to d c against my better judgement and it begins to go south. I hang up and go back to no contact. The time between contacts keeps getting longer I am sure it is because I am no longer useful. My response to him is becoming like "no you know what to do, I have given you the info for you to get a place to stay an opportunity to get your GED, get a job, get food, etc". I feel as you, having the other parents on this site makes it bearable. It helps to make me stronger and keep me strong. They truly understand. One cannot truly understand unless one has experienced and lived it. Keep posting, sister, you are among other warrior parents who support and care for you. :group-hug: Huge long Hugs, Hopeful [/QUOTE]
