Thank you Rebelson, I will check that video out


Albatross, Thanks for the help with quotes.  It turns out I don't have EOA.  The "insert quotes" button wasn't there when I was working with the draft.  I was seriously worried for my mental state. lol




RN0441 - Glad I'm not the only one.  By that same token, Difficult Child has done things that I am quite sure I would never tell anyone.  Yeah, that bad.




Wow, me too! I worry excessively anyway, but the weather and ambulances take it to the next level for sure.


I literally think about him every waking moment.  I used to think that this was abnormal until I read an article called 

Mothers' everyday experiences of having an adult child who suffers from long-term mental illness.  It states:


"A content analysis resulted in one main theme: My adult child who is struggling with mental illness is always on my mind"


Sigh




Tanya, no, my mother died in 2009.  I was her caretaker for the last 9 months of her life.  She died from Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) from smoking 3 packs of ciggs a day for 40 years.  She never did quit smoking.  I took good care of her and sacrificed some things to do so.  Doing this alleviated some of my guilt.




Yes.  Most certainly.  I am emotionally dependent how he is doing as well as how he feels towards me.  This really has to change completely because although  he loves me, I do think it is a good possibility that he may go through a period, possibly forever, where he rejects me and doesn't speak to me at all.  


Thank you to everyone for the replies.
