[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 177131, member: 1991"] Tee, this sounds very much anxiety-driven. easy child 2/difficult child 2 is A LOT like this, even now at 21. She moved out with BF2 a few weeks ago and we can't believe the peace and quiet. What's more, when I dropped in on her last week I got a lovely, unprompted hug and kiss on arrival and departure. I think she's beginning to appreciate us at last! Your 5yo has anxiety, so it's on the cards that this could be an issue for other family members also. Maybe she's just been good at holding things together when younger, but life is piling up a lot more now. As for the "it's what I've always wanted, my life will never be happy again" type of build-up - again, we get that a lot. More with difficult child 3 than his sister though. Still, for us we've seen it as part of the autism that doesn't just run in our family, it gallops. Marg [/QUOTE]
