[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here-you are so kind to give such caring advice. I feel like I helped my daughter make a last minute roommate change and that got her on the outs regarding the sorority. of course I have no idea if that's true but keep thinking about it and feel so mad at myself and so regretful. [/quote] This degree of worrying sounds like OCD. Ruminating upon “if I hadn’t done A, then B wouldn’t have happened” again and again to the point of suffering and paralysis. And catastrophizing the outcome, as if it’s not just one of many disappointments or bumps in the road that all human beings face. You have to have some faith in your DC that they can pick themselves back up and find a new path. We learn from our failures and deviations from our goals; it’s part of growth.[/quote] Op here— yes, this is precisely exactly correct! But I can’t seem to stop[/quote]
