It's a good sign that your son felt free enough to tell you what he saw in your purse and to talk about...you ARE a good mom! =)<br /><br />I am Ryleighsmom from SwapBot. I cannot follow your blog.

I have talked to my fiancee about this in some of my clearer moments and he says that just knowing that i feel bad about it and that i want to stop unloading on him helps. Ive also found that (with the binge drinking) if i tell my fiancee that i think thats where im headed, he can help remind me after a few drinks that maybe i should stop. Not in a controlling way, but just a gentle reminder. I hope you feel better soon and please contact me if you want to talk, I think we have a lot in common (i also have a brother with special needs). And I hope to run into you on swap-bot wich is where i found you (thegreengriffin).The Green Griffinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18388046754959934558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573974716280824495.post-69915999591879083202010-04-25T04:14:02.214-07:002010-04-25T04:14:02.214-07:00Thanks Ladies.

I quit when I moved here because I smoked outside and it's just too dang cold in the winter (20 to 30 below zero is normal!). <br /><br />I don't know why I bought the damn things. I guess because I fell for the seduction of the advertisings. I didn't plan on actually smoking. I guess I just thought they were...pretty...<br /><br />Eh, oh well. I guess it just created another education moment and now my son and I hope something to discuss for the next couple weeks...I don't know how long it will be before he lets it go. He can perseverate on something for quite a long time...quite typical of an autie (autistic person).Anonymous Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10268302736716404339noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573974716280824495.post-2882025437371807492010-04-25T00:20:53.577-07:002010-04-25T00:20:53.577-07:00i smoke too but I told myself that once I am pregn...i smoke too but I told myself that once I am pregnant, my smoking days must disappear.Robotgrannyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07996246663480841757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6573974716280824495.post-50013805627893698642010-04-24T22:44:15.779-07:002010-04-24T22:44:15.779-07:00I think you're a bit hard on yourself. ;) Havi...I think you're a bit hard on yourself. ;) Having a autistic child must be quite a challenge... I never had kids because I thought that's what they were... too much of a challenge. ;)<br /><br />I've been drinking quite a bit these last weeks too... and having dark thoughts... and pretending life means something... But in times like this, all gets dark and if a truck had the kindness to run over me I would be quite happy with that. ;)<br /><br />I am medicated too but I am not bipolar, just chronicly depressed, having "mood troubles" as they say. But sometimes the pills are just not enough and I have to put myself in "standby mode", just to be sure I won't be doing something silly while the situation gets back to normal.<br /><br />Like right now after moving, loosing my job, findind a crappy one to replace it, prosecuting my former boss and so on, it becomes too much to cope and I have to regain my balance.<br /><br />Ok... sorry... I am supposed to comment on YOUR post ! lol But I find that writing helps me the most in these times. And occupying my mind with silly things like swap-bot really helps me. ;)<br /><br />I really love to read your blog. It puts things in perspective for me. Take care, dear.<br /><br />Oh, and by the way, my man is not much help either !Lucie Le Blanchttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15235850324292915739noreply@blogger.com
