[QUOTE="Shari, post: 348724, member: 1848"] Take this time to recharge your own batteries. How you are feeling is to be expected. If you can at all figure out a way to keep some time just for yourself, and possibly you and easy child, once difficult child comes home, do it. Everyone needs that break. I haven't had to put Wee inpatient (yet, I fully expect it will happen at some point), but I have been without him for a few days at a time. There have also been stretches where things have gone well and he's almost been like having a easy child around. I have found when he comes home (or the difficult child behaviors return), for me, the first few days of dealing with it again are really hard. I think, for me, there's a period of let-down, or enhanced grief, or whatever you want to call it...getting back into the "daily grind"...that comes with the return of difficult child. [/QUOTE]
