[QUOTE="On_Call, post: 69512, member: 3211"] Bugsy, I cannot believe that there is anyone who has found themselves on this board that has not found themselves thinking, probably verbatim, what you have typed. I love my difficult child (and easy child) with all my heart and would do anything for either of them. However . . . . it is entirely and thoroughly exhausting (complete understatement) doing what we do everyday. Everything is a struggle with difficult child some days from waking up to getting dressed to eating - right up to getting back into bed at night. I think that I have tried so hard to learn to detach from it that I find myself sometimes completely detached from everything. I am trying to learn "selective detachment", which I have decided may be virtually impossible. You are definitely not alone. Know that. I know that in our everyday existance it can seem that way. I am sure if I told anyone at work some of the things I have admitted on this Board they would think that I had snapped. Hugs to you. Try to get some respite, if you can. [/QUOTE]
