[QUOTE="TerriH, post: 721700, member: 298"] It was. Not the not explaining part, I am used to that, but the not talking part. I was so VERY used to keeping one ear on her to pick up symptoms, it made me NUTS to have no idea how she was! She talks very fast when she is manic, and then I know to be extra-available to her and t be able to drop anything if she said she needed help. But, she did grow up during that time. She also moved to another state to stay with a "friend", and when she got into trouble, she called her ex-boyfriend in another state and he went and got her. The ex-boyfriend then called us to let us know where she was. They got together again, and She married him a couple of months ago. He is a good guy! When our kids are acting out, we need to remember to take care of ourselves even when it is hard to concentrate on anything else. I bought some books during that time, took myself out to breakfast a couple of times, etc. Little, thoughtful things done for ourselves and given to ourselves, keeps us functioning. [/QUOTE]
