[QUOTE="MichelleLynnFl, post: 716296, member: 22068"] Your Mom sounds exactly like mine, she rushed in to everyone's rescue. Very sorry that today was such a difficult day for you but, you are certainly on the right track. My daughter has never been on the streets her entire life for more than an evening. Your son has done so many times and he got through it right? I always took it that with her bipolar she was not as smart as others, had no common sense, could not find her way out of a paper sack if she tried. Guess what? My eyes were opened as she did that and so much more. For me, after both my kids left home, was an emotional wreck for about a week after until I became adjusted to my new routine. Maybe we just need to give ourselves space, even from our own selves. Go on a total mental check out within reason. Oh a massage sounds so good right now. :) [/QUOTE]
