[QUOTE="JKF, post: 585636, member: 12470"] I'm having a really hard time keeping my anxiety in check. Some days are better than others but last night was bad enough that I had to take a Xanax to calm down. I only do that in extreme situations but last night I had to! So my fear is that difficult child will have to leave the temp shelter and there will be no other housing available and he'll be out in the cold on the streets. The temp shelter supposedly only houses them for 7 nights but the caseworker told me they can stay longer. Hopefully that's true bc it's been 7 nights already. So no - this particular situation hasn't even happened yet but yes - I'm totally stressing out about the possibility of it happening. I'm still anxious today. Stomach is killing me (I've lost 10 lbs in ONE WEEK due to stress) and I have to keep reminding myself to breathe. I'm going to make some more calls on his behalf today but I can't let this take over my life again. Easier said than done! [/QUOTE]
