Welcome to the site. I know for my healing to begin I had to distance myself from my family especially...

That's so true. I've done the best by far when contact has been nonexistent or negligible. That is one of the reasons I haven't tried to re-establish connections with 2 of my sons. You know how my third son is reacting. My daughter is truly the only safe one to be around. I really think that since I modeled such sick behavior in allowing the abuse from my ex-husband to occur for so many years, that they, having the same anger issues, also think it's ok. In trying to change this rule, it's been a challenge.

Thank you. I love it when positive thoughts are reinforced. I'm really beginning to understand how the way I think causes me so much needless suffering.

When I read the forums, I feel kind of like I've found my tribe.
