[QUOTE="Nature, post: 689938, member: 19011"] Welcome Karisma and Jacquelina, It hurts us to the core over what has happened to our children. We often feel shame on top of the pain as to what is happening to our child. As mothers when they hurt we hurt. Yet, I have come to realize very slowly that my love isn't enough to stop or to change them. Enabling only allowed my son to prolong helping himself. I get the sense that you both probably felt the same way I did earlier on when I asked myself this, "how can I feel joy when my own child is suffering so much?". I realize that for the sake of my own well being and sanity I have to continue to take care of myself, find joy again and extend my circle of friends whom I had long neglected due to my son's issues. You've got us here - we're all here for each other and understand what you are going through. I'm sorry you are experiencing this pain and glad you are here with us to share it. You're in a safe place where you can bare your soul and have others understand and offer comfort and support. [/QUOTE]
