[QUOTE="Gone, post: 640344"] It is sad because I can just about remember the times when she was well and at home , cooking a lovely home cooked meal for her son and us , happily doing the housework , getting little mans clothes ready for school , thinking clearly , rationally and logically , happier and calmer than now , everything in place , nice routine with the odd day out bowling or to a nice park or farm , everybody happy and at peace... And then the CHAOS began , not that there weren't TIMES of chaos before , with some of the friends she had and other times of partying it up at home with her 'mates' etc but when more happy and content she is happy to be at home with little man doing all the simple but incredibly joyful things whereas when the CHAOS starts SHE is unhappier as it starts from her unhappy place and the need to be around others all the time which I understand and have been there myself before after a bereavement ( I didn't want to be alone and face the feelings ) but it does not do us any good to 'escape' the reality of painful and difficult times and emotions , we have to go THROUGH it and it is sometimes HARD WORK which is the bit she seems not so willing to do right now and is trying the 'easiest way possible' but there IS no easy way and I hope she has the courage and support to face her ''stuff'' ASAP for little ones sake too so it can all settle down to a place of contentment for ALL of us as I cannot say I am not affected by it if I am around it or even if I am not [/QUOTE]
