[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 652852, member: 59"] RE your post was so relevant to me. I recently had a scare that brought me right back to that place of fear that had me strangled for so long. difficult child announced she was quitting her job (a job with healthcare and good weekday hours) because her friend there got fired. Of course I fell right back into the old pattern but caught myself before I got too far along. I let my woderful, patient, cool headed husband talk to her and two days later she figured it out, decided not to quit and was back on track. It was a serious reminder of how easily I could slip back into the same destructive patterns and how I need to work on myself all the time. Life is far too short for us to spend it worrying about what might happen instead of living in the present. I have slowed down a lot too and trying to enjoy the calmer parts of life. Thanks for the reminder. [/QUOTE]
