[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 111925, member: 3388"] Beth, It's difficult to be truly happy when under chronic stress (I got this term from an article Janna posted not too long ago). You've been through so much. I think it is nearly impossible to be happy all the time with so many difficult child issues. I think Jo has some great ideas. I usually listen to music that brings me back to a time when I didn't have difficult children when exercising. I find that this helps me feel free of difficult children and their issues for a short period of time. I think all of us are riding on the difficult child rollercoaster of life filled with twists and turns we never thought possible before difficult children came into our lives. As a result, I think it is absolutely necessary to do things just for ourselves whenever we can. I also think we need to detach from our difficult children to the extent we can. I think although we love our difficult children, we have a right to happiness too. I just wish I could find the right balance between worrying about my difficult children and detaching from them. In this area, I guess I'm not much help. SORRY!!! Anyway, I just want to let you know I think I understand how you feel. I hope 2008 is a much better year for you. WFEN [/QUOTE]
