I have to tell you all that this is one of the best things that have ever happened to me. I started coming here when I was caring for my mom after her stroke and was frazzled beyond belief with no help really and the attitude my mom had developed during that time. I can't begin to tell how much it helped me to know that others were understanding my situation and how much I appreciated everyone taking the time to answer my letters with wonderful advice and reassurance that I wasn't a bad daughter for having burnout. My mom passed away in July and I have been dealing with the loss and with the wonderful help of my husband I am doing ok. I just want to say hang in there to those who are struggling and thanks again to those who gave me advice when i needed it.
I sometimes wonder if what I write out is taken in, digested and used or spit out.
I am sure others wonder the same.
It is always nice when someone responds or replies.
Please do not let what you have learned on your journey stagnate, share what you have learned here and in "real life"
Again, thanks so much for letting us know that anything anyone said here might have helped a bit.
