[QUOTE="totoro, post: 196032, member: 3155"] It does get better... I am just starting to *live* my life again. I have been nothing but Mental Illness for the past almost 5 years. Trying to figure out myself and my children. It does start working out, or you figure out ways to work it out within yourself. I have to hold onto the little things also, because even though K is kind of stable right now, none if will last. I know this to be true. I will become unstable again, she will as well. But I am more prepared. We may lose Doctors again, but now I have options. My whole life is a fight for my kids, but I have learned to sneak in things for myself. I have learned to enjoy little things like reading, gardening, baking. When it cools down here again I will try to hike again and bike. I am making myself workout... This past week and a half: 8 Doctor apts. ranging from sleep deprived eeg's, allergy testing for K and husband, to new TODC interviews.... I still have 3 more! husband is on his 3rd week of debilitating gout, I am now allowed to feed him from a VERY strict menu which is a HUGE pain... until we get all of his tests back. N had her 4th bloody nose this morning. I could not get it to stop... so she is here with me. But I can't let these things interfere with the goal. We are a family and we will try, we will keep trying and persarvering until someone makes us stop. So in between the tears and the violence and the hurt... I smile. Nothing can take away the beauty of life and the beauty of taking a deep breath. I don't feel happy all of the time... but I try to feel happy throughout the day for all of the little things. You are a warrior... we all are in our own ways. Our strength shines through at different times in different ways. [/QUOTE]
