[QUOTE="Albatross, post: 741670, member: 17720"] Not to hijack this thread, but Copa, your post rocked my world. Especially this: "To feel I have been a good mother and a good person, and have lived a good life, WITH A GOOD RESULT." Wow. That sums it all up for me. Many facets to wanting a good outcome, which is probably the basis for the story I continue to tell myself, regardless of what is happening around me. I see what I want to see, to protect my version of the story. Sorry for the interlude but had to thank Copa for that post. Trying, we all understand how hard it is to watch them struggle. I'm so sorry for your son's pain. I hope he comes to a place of honesty and vulnerability so he can work with his therapists, instead of living in his self-imposed guilt and shame. But I do agree that until he does, he needs to stop burdening you with his self-harm. You can't do anything about it when you are thousands of miles away and he rejects your advice. [/QUOTE]
