Less Scared and Less Alone

[angel61]

(((LIS)))),
I too read your sitch and I feel so much for you. I understand why your H is so special - the way he handled those nightmares were spot on, he was your protector. My H did that too to my D12 when she was 7 - when she had her anxiety attacks, he would pretend to beat her "awees" and now, when she recalls what helped her get over her anxiety, she tells me it was Dad, not the therapist. Reading your sitch, I felt the familiar ache in my stomach that I feel when I think about my H leaving us, especially D12.

No matter how strong we all are, we fall apart. I do so every two weeks or so. Sometimes, it gets bad, and I show my resentment to H, which always has a bad effect ultimately, and what I think has made our M worse and worse throughout the whole sitch.

TRy to hang in there and be consistent. YOu have been so helpful and encouraging in spite of your pain.

Praying for you.
