[QUOTE="KFld, post: 43706, member: 2442"] I always found when my difficult child was away, sending uplifting cards letting him know I knew he was strong and could accomplish anything he wanted in life, always made him feel better. It's never easy when they first leave, I don't care how old they are. My difficult child was 18 and I felt like I could crawl in a hole and die, but guess what, I survived [img]:smile:[/img] as did difficult child. And today we are both better and stronger people for it. Your son is in a safe place getting the help he needs. Focus on that. He could be in the streets and far from safe. Be happy for where he is and try to get some of yourself back while he's gone. Take care of your self and become a stronger more productive less stressed you!! You'll be happy you did. [/QUOTE]
