[quote=Anonymous]I hear you. Being worried about your children and dealing with stressful medical stuff is draining. I don’t have a lot of advice as I have been dealing with similar stuff, on top of stuff at work. I feel overwhelmed and exhausted. What helps me a lot is consciously taking time to fill my tank. We were able to get away this summer for a week and that made me feel so positive. Ditto for short trip to see a friend get married. On a smaller scale, things like acupuncture or massage. I think everyone has a threshold for managing stress and sometimes events conspire to just take you way beyond. The key is not to beat up on yourself for what happened and how you feel. Your thoughts are on overdrive. Try to quiet your mind and make peace with the present. Easier said than done, I know. Sending love.[/quote]
