[QUOTE="Origami, post: 727967, member: 18099"] Strangeworld, I was just thinking about this the other day. I was telling one of my good friends at work how hopeful I was for a good outcome from my son's rehab. She is a former social worker who's worked in addictions counseling. She told me to research the Pink Cloud, and that my son's newfound well-being is probably just a temporary thing. I told her that I understand he's not out of the woods, and he could relapse, but "Hope springs eternal." To that, she said, "To you, maybe." I decided then and there to share only minimal things with her in the future, as I don't need that negativity in my life. Her children are young (ages 5 and 8), and her husband is seemingly perfect (according to her), and I get tired of hearing about how great everyone is. Of course, I don't wish that she has the kind of problems that I do, but my kids were perfect at those ages, also. [/QUOTE]
