Hello dear, I didn't understand your post. Can you clarify it for me please. We're all here for you. Don't give up just explain.

LORI:

I also tried to fill in the blanks with this post and the other one titled "Trying to Simplify." All the confusion, anxiety, and pain are making you "do a Whitney Houston": talking about different subjects at the same time and expecting people to connect the dots. Still, we want to help.

Below is a strategy I call the "5 Ws." It'll help organize your thoughts coherently. Do it on paper first, then type and post.

WHO (parties involved)
WHAT (the problem[s] is)
WHERE (e.g., your home, your parent's house)
WHEN (e.g., recently, last year, now)
WHY (reason[s] that precipitated the conflict)

Giving up is not an option in this forum Lori, so give it a shot. Good luck.

Lori, I understand what you were saying. Mom is obsessed with going. I f she does not have a BM every day, she'll have a panic attack and keep trying to go until she does. It's a very bad issue to have to deal with, because they don't understand that they will go eventually. Try giving him 1 or 2 stool softeners every day. You may end up with a different problem, but he won't be using your son's toothbrush to dig for gold!
Hang in there. We do the best we can to help each other out here. There is bound to be someone who is dealing with the same problems as you.
Take care, and go get some stool softeners!
