[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 261763, member: 1514"] I agree with everyone else. You are not a bad person for thinking that everything would be better if difficult child was gone. Heaven only knows how many times I thought that. Actually, things are better in my house now that my son is not living with me, now that he is gone from my every waking moment. That doesnt mean that I dont still love him, that I dont still think about him or worry about him because I do...but he doesnt consume me the way he used to. I used to be way too enmeshed with my son. We fed off each other in really bad ways. I often wanted to just "go away forever" when things were bad with him. I still have those thoughts but they arent tied to him like they were. I cant say my medications are linked to my kids because they arent. I dont have the situational problems most of the other mom's here have...my problems are chemical and I will have them forever. However, I couldnt survive without those medications. [/QUOTE]
