[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 708097, member: 18958"] This is true for me, too. But I struck gold recently, because I found a spiritual director. She is a Rabbi who is also a dance therapist. I speak to her on the phone. I have found that for me spirituality is a large part of the answer. But I need a therapist too. I have a lot of fear about therapy because of a lifetime of disappointments and even abuse, at the hands of therapists. I will try... Wisernow, thank you for these references. I will look for them. I have not yet gotten to this point, but hopefully, I will. I credit you for your strength, hope and risk-taking. Things began really to change, to turn around in my relationship to my son when in desperation, guided by the Rabbi, I prayed. I did not realize I knew how to pray. Instead of demanding, controlling, beseeching...I asked g-d, please g-d let my son be safe; let him live, please g-d; and more. This created space. In me. Between us, to reconnect through our love, my con and I. Our struggles continue but not as intensely, and we are able to reconnect quickly. Both of us take steps toward the other. Miracles, all.
