[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 703999, member: 18958"] Well, I had to google ESH. Experience. Strength. Hope. That pretty much says it. You make several important points, NOLO: I agree we are a movement, yet I had not thought of it in this way. I am happy and hopeful for you that you have prevailed in influencing your daughter to accept medication. She may decide at some point to refuse it, but your awareness of your limits, and the limits of your responsibility will allow you to do the right thing for each of you, and your family, whatever she chooses. For me, boundaries, and the wanting to impose control, to operate from my own hopes and needs--is a real weakness on my part. You are to be applauded for the boundaries, and your commitment for self-care, and the efforts you have made to seek support. I did things exactly reversed. I was able to reach out here and post. It took me a year and a half before I was able to reach out for direct support, in my community. I was afraid. But I am doing so, now. I am so glad you are posting, and I hope you continue. The actual posting, the thinking while writing, is actually both cathartic and I believe changes the brain, allows us to discharge some of our pain. Welcome. [/QUOTE]
