So, how do you detach? What did YOU do?

[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 633820, member: 1514"] For the most part I had people around me, few that they were, that believed in us. My son was an equal opportunity donkey's behind so everyone saw his behaviors. I did have a few people who said they didnt know how we did it but it wasnt said in a bad way, they honestly felt our pain and anguish and wanted to help. The only real horrible experience I ever had with someone who was close to me who said something stupid was my immediate supervisor when I was still working. He told me that if it were his kid he would beat the snot out of him. Ironic since I worked for Social Services...lol. So unhelpful. We didnt have many friends, mostly just our coworkers. Cory's mental health workers were for the most part wonderful people who dearly wanted to help but he just wouldnt comply. They did help me. I was able to turn to them and cry on their shoulders when things got bad. Whats funny is that when Cory was 13 he went inpatient and was dxd with bipolar. The psychiatrist there is now the psychiatrist that we both go to. We found him again once my son was an adult and able to use someone other than county mental health. Its so ironic that we both go to the same psychiatrist...in fact at the moment we have our appts at the same time to save the doctor time. Some probably think that is too much sharing but I have nothing to hide and evidently neither does he! [/QUOTE]
