[QUOTE="RN0441, post: 760906, member: 15032"] That is so true. I grew up with an alcoholic mother and very often did not have my basic needs met SO I wanted to be the best mother ever to my two boys and stepson. But through therapy I also learned to give myself some grace and SELF COMPASSION. Maybe some of the things I did contributed to the continuation of my son's addictive behaviors but I don't hold it against ME anymore. I think we all do the best that we can. We love our children to the moon and back. We'd die for them but not in order to let them continue in an addictive or destructive path/life. We need to take care of ourselves. It's so very important because we cannot be of any good to anyone if we are not mentally and physically healthy. :notalone: [/QUOTE]
