[QUOTE="New Leaf, post: 678191, member: 19522"] What a beautiful song Rebelson, thank you so much for sharing. Rebelson, what ever gave you the idea that you are babbling, and it is boring? Stop being mean to yourself. We are all "babbling" it is called venting, sharing, and that is [I]exactly what this place is for[/I]. I don't know how many times someone has posted, and I'll be like "Uh, huh, been there, done that." Please do not "keep" yourself from posting, you are encouraged to post as much as you want. It helps not only you, but others who are going through similar situations. I have not heard from my Tornado for almost five months now. This includes my three grands. It is hard, but it is also not hard, you know? The daughter I miss, is in there deep inside. Somewhere. But, the one who I have seen for the past few years, is manipulative and cunning. She knows how to tug at my heartstrings and make my life hell. I miss my daughter, not the drug-napped her, the real her. She does the same thing as your son. She will not call me. It is a manipulative ploy. She is "punishing" me by not calling. It is absurd. My two have changed so much with drug use. I am thinking it is like they have personality disorder, they are not the kids I knew. I found this website that has some good information. [URL]http://outofthefog.website/[/URL] I think it pretty much describes the things we go through with our d cs. There are some good articles about building our toolboxes. Take this time of no- contact to build your toolbox Rebelson. You have value and you matter. We have learned as moms, to put ourselves on the side, and take care of our kids. When the kids go off the rails, we get frantic, and there is this parallel journey we take with them. We don't mean to, but it happens. It is hard to let go and start to focus on ourselves. I have thought about how very important it is, because I don't do the kids any good by [I]self destructing along with them[/I]. I hope you are able to take some time to do things you enjoy, to focus on YOU. I think it is the best thing we can do for the kids, [I]show them by our actions,[/I] how to live well.
