"I am nothing special; of this I am sure. I am a common man with common thoughts, and I've led a common life. There are no monuments dedicated to me and my name will soon be forgotten, but I've loved another with all my heart and soul, and to me, this has always been enough".
I agree... I would not wish GAD on anyone long term but wish that my family (especially DH) could feel it just once to know how it feels. Maybe everyone would be more understanding.

I think you asked something similiar to this along time ago, Suz. Maybe. Maybe not. In any event, I think I answered losing weight & it's still one of my priorities. ITA that lifestyle changes are very difficult. I still need to lose.
However, I am facing a challenge here @ home that I have mentioned. My teen is giving me fits. I am sincerely trying, but even my therapist says I'm having great difficulty letting go. It isn't that I want so much to *control* her, as I want to protect her from all harm & keep her safe from herself. Being 17 & turning 18 in 3 months means this is very unrealistic. She is making poor choices & bad decisions. I simply cannot turn my back on her. The therapist says(& he sees her, too) that she is the sort of kid that will never take advice. She must be hit over the head with a brick & then some to see what's wrong with the picture. She must learn by making her own mistakes. So, tonight I dug up this post & finally have my answer. If I could change anything, I would learn to let go. I have quoted the serenity prayer so much, I need to put it into practice. Thx for the *thinker.* LOL jan
