[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 605101, member: 1514"] Wow I envy you. I think you were very lucky to have that type of ending with the therapist. I had mine torn away in one of the worst months of my life. Neither of us were happy about it but it was what it was. For a few months I was okay but as things really got worse in the summer of 2011, I have gone backwards significantly. I do find I try to use some of the things I was taught but it would sure help if the other people in my life would react the way they are supposed to! It all seems so clear when talking in therapy or in reading books that if you change and do X, then other people will do Y. Not! I wish I could find a good group locally because I would love to have the friendship. I did try one group years ago when I first started with my therapist but it really wasnt a good fit because these people didnt have difficult child's. They were so very not understanding when I went off over some of the things going on with difficult child. I tend to be quite verbal when angry and many of them thought I was completely awful because of some of the things I said. To be honest I cant blame someone who has never had a difficult child. One of the women had two kids in a prestigious college on a full academic scholarship. She could never conceive of what my life was like. We were on different planets! [/QUOTE]
