[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 695272, member: 17720"] I am very happy to hear about your friend's daughter. What a turnaround! I have seen what happens when a patient finds the right medication for a chemical imbalance and is it a beautiful thing. RN, yes, I think you are right. That is what is going on with hubs. He has not accepted it. Your comment got me thinking, and I realized that I have been to a counselor 3 times for guidance in dealing with Difficult Child. Then I take what I find home, and hubs and I discuss how to carry it forward. This has always seemed reasonable to me, because I am the one whose life SEEMS to be most out of kilter when Difficult Child is ramping up. Of course, this is not true. Hubs just hides it better and thinks he has to be the rock, but it has cost him plenty. And me acting as the middle man dulls the message, A LOT. This will be hub's first visit with a counselor about Difficult Child and his collateral damage. Perhaps we will finally cover some new ground. ******************************************************************************************************************************** Leafy, I don't know what to say. I have read and re-read your post, and printed it off to carry around with me. It made me cry, in such a good and cleansing way. I needed to hear those things so much, my dear friend. Thank you, thank you...more than I can say. So many times I wish our hugs weren't just virtual around here. [/QUOTE]
