[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 743454, member: 18958"] Annie. I am sorry if my post on another thread is causing you confusion and pain. What is right for me is not necessarily right for you or any other mother. Many mothers here, maybe most, think very differently than do I. And I am among the mothers that suffers the most with distance. I have a very hard time with making a boundary. That's why I know about them. I study them. In other people. I think what you are going through had to happen. You will swim through these shark-infested currents a while and you will survive, and when you reach the shore you will know. You will know, then, your own inner needs which have not one thing to do with what other people say or what they would do, but only to do with your own heart. There is no quick way to get through these dangerous waters and we stay there as long as we need to, to figure out what we need. This is a spiritual journey you are on and there are no shortcuts. The need here is to be as kind and patient with yourself as you can summon. This is really a dark night of the soul, but you will get through it. I know. [/QUOTE]
