Guilt
Notifications OFFPost deleted by user
I think on this journey when we dig into our ourself we all feel guilt, even though we don't deserve to.
i feel so much guilt, why didn't i see what was going on, why didn't I notice my son was so unhappy/insecure, was it because me and his dad were going through a rough patch at that time?
Why didn't I support him more during his arrest, why have I not visited him in prison, why didn't I give him more of my time, why do I deceive my loved ones..... x
it goes on and on and never stops!!!!!! I think it's another emotion we have to sadly live with and accept. Try to balance it by the understanding what happened was 'not our fault'. For me I always did my best for my boy since the day he came into this world, I know deep down I couldn't have done anymore for him. The choices he made were his and his alone.
As for you my friend, I'd be inclined to try to dwell on a new start, a fresh start - you are seeing the light at long last. Yes there will be hiccups but (try to ) march on, move on - it's what we do on here, you have your man back very soon.....
Bless - and good luck xx.
