[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 460220, member: 11791"] It would be more of a problem if you did NOT have feelings. You are a normal human being. Life's ups and downs are more extreme if you have a difficult child - but the ups and downs are there for everybody. And most people are normal and have feelings that go all over the place too. To lock away yourself and your feelings is counterproductive. Yes, as parents, we put our kids needs ahead of our own wants, and often ahead of minor needs (do I really need to replace my glasses this year? or use that $$ for difficult child's therapy?). But, we cannot deny or ignore our own needs without making the situation worse. Its a tough road. {{more hugs}} [/QUOTE]
