[QUOTE="rebelson, post: 695641, member: 19966"] Definitely understand this. He is 26, an adult. When we move them back in, it sets them back immensely. Though I SO wish a holiday visit could happen (years are passing:frown-new:-he is missing out on his siblings growing up), I cringe to even [I]think[/I] about having him here and what all would inevitably ensue. This makes me very sad. But, it is what it is. Karisma, I think this ^^^^ [I]was[/I] his reply to your email? Or, maybe not. What do you think? Oh please try to make yourself important again. You matter so much. Because it could be years before he is 'ok'. You need to try and find something small. If you love music, spend 10 minutes/day listening to your favorite. And really try to block everything else out during that 10 minutes. Just one example, but this does not have to be some big deal. Something [I]little[/I]. For you. :strawberry: Yesterday, at the end of my therapy session, my therapist told me 'you need to start doing something daily, for [I]you[/I].' I said 'Ugh, I love running, but when I can, I am too tired or it's too hot!' She said 'do it anyway...run half of what you normally would, but you need something for [I]you[/I].' :notalone: [/QUOTE]
