[QUOTE="nlj, post: 673652, member: 17650"] I'm impressed Hopeful, you sound so strong. I know you are sad, we all understand that sadness, it's there all the time under the anger and frustration and confusion and misplaced guilt and exhausted detachment. Sadness. It's like a blanket that wraps around me in the middle of the night when I can't sleep. I used to find crying helped. It seemed to wash the sadness out of me for a while. But sometimes you get to that point where crying doesn't really work, because your emotions seem to be switched off, overloaded, or they're so muddled up that you don't really know what you want to do or feel like doing. I'm glad you have your husband and that you can share your strength and sadness with him. It sounds as if he needs you to do that. I would focus my positive energy on my husband I think, if I was in your situation. My husband just thinks my troubled son is a bit bonkers, that can be a bit frustrating sometimes when I'm feeling sad. It would be very hard though if I could see that my husband was sad too.
