Re: Sleeping too much

Thanks @Appleblossom, @Faith-and-Hope, @Peppi ... Appreciate your perspective. Seems I WAS in a panic, crying, trouble breathing. It feels like I've lost him. Like he's angry with me over something. Like he's hiding something bug, leaving me out... I don't wanna let go. He is my family. On the other hand, hw turned to my sister & hubby when i went off the rails after my girl died, and my sister has cut me off, so God knows what poiaon is happwning bwtween thwm. Just took heavy headache pill. Gotta rest before big morning with mum & dad early tomorrow, I packed today.
Thanks for helping mW level out my thinking. Just panic, now numb.

Re: Sleeping too much

Take care of you @Former-Member ..... try not to let your mind travel too far down that worst case scenario track .... if your son could have his ideal, he would want as balanced and happy a family as was possible under the strained circumstances .... if he turned to your sister when you were in (understandable) crisis, and he still respects that relationship, then be polite in her direction, especially in front of him, so it doesn't challenge his loyalties ....

Your sister can never replace you as his mum .... cos you're on board, and you are his mum ....

Give him a little space and just walk along with him from a bit of a distance for now so he doesn't feel hassled, and he will come around. He may need to process a bit that you went to the rescue of your mum and dad for a while, and did a good job of it !! But let him work that out, or hear about it, or ask you about it when he is in a better frame of mind. He will be grieving his sister tomorrow, as well as his newly lost relationship .....

We are here for you ....

Gently, gently ....

Breathe .....

❤️💕

Re: Sleeping too much

Hi @Former-Member

I can hear the panic and I too know so much panic about the "loss of my daughter", partly from betrayal by my surviving sister, in a very simiar dynamic revolving around LIFE & DEATH issues.

Here for you.
