[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks everyone for your input, and I'd love to hear other stories as well. I am and have been definitely where 16:29 describes -- thinking if you just reach the next "goal" everything will be all right (or better, or different, or whatever). I think the anger is also really hard, but I suspect that will fade with time to some extent. I find that sometimes I'm angry with my DC, when it's not his fault at all. I find myself obsessing over things, wanting to run away, wishing he had never been born. Then I feel TERRIBLE about feeling that way. I am a perfectionist and also very concerned about what other people think, and that makes this harder. I am definitely working through that and trying to appreciate him for who he is and take joy in the little moments, even if they are different than the little moments other people experience.[/quote]
