[QUOTE="MissLulu, post: 759850, member: 24721"] Hi Copa, You sound better, calmer. I truly hope that is the case. As you have counselled me many times, there is nothing for you to do here - only hope and pray for his health and safety, while keeping yourself safe (mentally as well as physically.) He will do what he will do and all you can control is you. So, you have to focus on looking after yourself. Of course, that is easy to say. Hard to do. I know this. Nevertheless, we have to try. What else can we do? I hope you are able to get some respite from your fear and pain by distracting yourself with things you enjoy. When I'm really stressed I find listening to a podcast or an audiobook can help - or watching a movie. I have work (which I love) to lose myself in. I hope you have work, study or leisure activities that you can distract yourself with. When I'm very anxious, I come here often - even when I don't write posts of my own. There's solace in just being among others who understand. Thinking of you and your son tonight, L xx [/QUOTE]
