[QUOTE="Childofmine, post: 702263, member: 17542"] Hi Jodie...you sound good! Better than when you first arrived here. I'm so glad you are relying on the forum for support. Oh yes. Isn't that what happens? They start doing better...and then we start to worry about how long it will last!!!! What??? Is that just the irony of it all. I found one thing that helped me was trying hard to learn how to live One Day at a Time...what that actually means...and then Living in This One Moment. Right now. It's really hard to do because you have to be super aware of everything all the time. It's a heightened sense of life. But it's truly the very best part of life. We can only affect this...one...single...moment. Right now. The past is done, and the future hasn't happened. There is a great chance that the future will be better than then past, too! So...can we all (me and you) try hard to focus on the Here and Now. P.S. I love my grown sons, and with Difficult Child I have come to enjoy the brief and long conversations that have nothing to do with me giving him...anything. Nothing. that is when I knew things were really starting to change. Relax into right now Jodie and relish it. Warm hugs. [/QUOTE]
