Saw my therapist today

My son drove me to my therapy appt today as I am still taking prednisone for my asthma and I am still quite shaky.  As always the session goes very well.  And right now I am in a good place. I think my a/d med has started to work. My younger son is doing very well right now.  He seems to be getting beyond his breakup and he is moving forward with his life.  He has lots of plans with friends and that keeps him busy and he says he feels he is moving away from the bad times and thinking very little about his ex.  He got a message from her, not by email but a Facebook message although he has not invited her in to his Facebook page.  It didn't say much just that she was thinking about him and hoping he was doing OK and that she still loved him.  He said he was not really upset about the message and is just pretty much ignoring it.  It sounds like she is still trying to get back into his life in any way she can.  And Isuppose she thought that was the least imposing way.  He refuses to answer her which is good.  And the further I get away from this whole thing the better I am doing.  Just wanted to post that things are  getting a bit better for me and I am hopeful they will continue.

Ditto.

It's really good to hear that you are starting to feel a bit more positive about things. It sounds like your son has a very good perspective on this all & is able to start moving on with his life. I am so happy for you. :)

hugs & happy thoughts,

Hi Aurora, I'm really glad you had a good session with your therapist, and that the AD meds are doing their stuff.  You must be so relieved.  I'm happy for you!  I think your son is doing great, and the way he is handing the situation is the kindest and smartest thing he could do for both himself and his ex.  They will both be able to move on more easily without the continued contact, IMO.  Thanks for letting us know about the improvements.....it's wonderful news. 

Thanks Gem for your reply.  It always makes me feel better when someone takes the time to give me support.  I am learning to keep out of my son's business. It is getting much easier as I do better not being involved, thus feel less down.  And I am glad I have gone up on the a/d med as it seems to be helping.  I just have to take each day as it comes some good some not so good. But life always has its ups and downs. We just have to do the best we can for the moment.
