[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 752709, member: 18958"] OMG. I only just now put these together: M has ALWAYS maintained that my not working, my withdrawal from life, and all kinds of other stress-related behaviors were linked to reaction to suffering and confusion of my son. I have paid lip service to this, but not really (wanted to) take it in. Even though that has been my long term pattern. Being unable to be happy and fully functioning...if my son was not. Seven years not working, the exact seven years by son has not worked. And I loved my work. And did it well. I got a great deal of self-esteem and meaning from my work. Wow. Thank you people. [/QUOTE]
