Well it wasn't supposed to be rough. We went to Dollywood. Unfortuneately, it was very hot, very crowded and ended up being very stressful for me. I sent the kids to the in-laws and am going to IL on Tues. I got so stressed out that I am going to see a counselor on Monday. So if I am quiet for a while, I am just dealing with things here, but am thinking of you all.

Thanks ladies. I met with an RN that does some counseling today. The person who I will see from now on wasn't there yet. She is new to the office, but not counseling. It helped that she is alot like me (codependent personality traits) so she could identify with my reactions to things. I will have a plan for behavior modification with Peggy my therapist starting next week. (sounds complicated, but just means learning new ways to react to stress and things) Also, the lady I saw today is going to start another class for codpendency people (kind of like group sessions) in Sept. I will be signing up for that as well.
I am very glad I went and got help. It wasn't easy for someone like me. I always feel i "should" do it by myself. I also can't say no. But anyway, I am doing better now. Thank you for your hugs, prayers and support. You are all the greatest!

I know exactly how you feel Melody, I feel the same way that I should be able to do it by myself too. But back in 2001 it was just too much for me and I didn't have a clue what was happening and I got help too. Best thing I could have done for myself and everyone around me.
I'm glad you are getting the help you need and the support group sounds good too. Remember we are here for you whenever you need us too. {{{Melody}}}

Melody, lots of hugs and prayers for you. It takes a strong person to ask for help and I'm so glad you did. I'm a firm believer in counseling. Lord knows it's gotten us through some tough times.
