[QUOTE="ScentofCedar, post: 24066, member: 3353"] Hugging you, RM. It's hard to know who we are, after we have dealt with crisis after crisis and there has been no successful resolution and our kids are still suffering. I am not sure, because I am still finding my way through all this too, but I think we do come back into some kind of emotional balance as time passes. I do remember that I would become depressed after the crisis time was over ~ part of it might be that the constant adrenalin rush that kept us fighting for our children isn't happening anymore, and without it, we finally feel our own exhaustion. Sometimes, I look at myself, at the depression, as a very deep well that has had too much water drawn out. The good, clear water that filled the well in the first place needs to seep back in, to fill the well again. And that takes time. That imagery helps me to know there will come a time when I will have energy, when I will be full, and will feel clear-headed, again. Barbara [/QUOTE]
