[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 233023, member: 3388"] As gcvmom said, DETACH!!! I managed to survive many years by exercising - I love to run. I ran five miles a day, sometimes more. I also worked out on my ellipitcal. Then, last year, I injured my ankle. I began having other physical problems too. To make a long story short, I've been having a much harder time dealing with my difficult children without being able to do aerobic exercise daily. I think I use a combination of detachment, talking to a good friend, and getting time away from my difficult children as much as possible. When my body lets me, I exercise. I've also come to depend upon the support of everyone here. There are just so many caring people here who totally understand where I'm coming from. It's just a relief to know others understand... My best advice, if you're able to, is exercise. Participate in a sport or sports you love. Spend time with friends. Don't isolate yourself from others when times are tough at home (I've been guilty of this in the past). Make sure you take time to do things just for you. This is really important. WFEN [/QUOTE]
