Does it just help to know someone is listening?

Hi Lynn,
It helps me in the moment of receiving support. Everytime I lay it out there I feel very vulnerable. As a result, I tend to completely avoid seeking support when I feel very low. I may even come in, and read supportive posts of understanding, but I avoid writing another difficult time (and risk losing support). That's my rationale anyway.
Thank you for your kind words. I hope that things go well for your son and that his condition improves as time passes. Don't feel guilty ~ I often feel guilty for the changes I've undergone (as it has impacted pretty much every area of my life). So much suffering. I can only imagine what you feel, Lynn. Hugs to you
