[QUOTE="StressedM0mma, post: 499609, member: 13204"] Thanks Step and Shari. I am a stay at home mom so I think that is a big part of the problem. I do not have a place that I HAVE to go to each day. I would like to get a job, but at this point I am not ready. I also foster dogs for an animal rescue, but I have not brought a new one in due to all of the disorder. I didn't feel it would be fair to the dog. (difficult child loves animals and would never harm our pets or fosters) I just figured the foster has enough issues to begon with, I didn't want to add difficult child's tantrums in on top of it. husband said something similar Step. He told me that I need to find something for just ME. That I need something that I love in order to get better. I am trying to find that. Part of the problem is/was that I love(d) being a mom. I guess it is time for me to move on. I try to force myself out of the house everyday. Even if it is for just a little while. Tonight difficult child has riding lessons, and I will sit there while she is riding. I will be freezing, but I figure the cold air will be good for me. husband and easy child leave a week from today for her auditions. My mom is coming up then so I will not be alone with difficult child. I am looking forward to that. For some reason she knows just what to do. She will make me leave the house and do things, and eat. Thanks. I pray for strength everyday. If you have any other words of wisdom please pass them on. [/QUOTE]
