Every time I sit down to write this, I feel a deep exhaustion, and more fear than usual of "what could be".

She said the movie was current, yet so out of reality she couldn't believe it. The main message of the movie was to remember...

SCOOP

Supportive Response
Communication
A double dose of Optimism!! :sick:
Patience

Look, I know I'm mostly rainbows and butterflies... but this had me even wanting to rip my ears off. Luckily I didn't see it or I'd be typing blind after ripping my eyes out too.

I asked her if it was for Pooper Scooper... but she said no one brought that up!!

SD finally had a counseling appointment alone today. She asked the counselor her questions and not surprisingly, the counselor was upset and disturbed. She wanted to know where SD got the idea to question if she was emotionally abused.

Counselor basically told SD that, in her opinion, SD was not emotionally abused because her mom never meant to hurt her!! Sita - just like you said emotional abuse requires some form of "intent to hurt"... Counselor pretty much had said that, and thank you - I was able to reconfirm that in the car using your words!! Thank you!!

I read someone post that "advice is scarce around here"... unless it has to do with drama, etc.

I know for myself, I haven't been able to post too much advice lately.

I've been able to post on the "fun" blogs. And even jumped in on one or two of the "hot topic" blogs.

But I have to say, that my head is just hurting and I don't feel like I can contribute too much or too objectively right now.

I'm swimming in stress over here. So I am having a hard time "contributing".

sorry!
