Bridget, Im so sorry to hear this cycle didn't work it out for you...I know its just so frustrating while you think you are doing all the right things but its just not happening...vent, be angry and let it all out...then you will be able to breath again and be able to hope again...it is a hard road but we will get there eventually. Don't give up hun!

Hope its just some misunderstanding between you and your mum...sometimes I'd rather to be left alone than being asked about details what's wrong...,maybe she just thought you are not in the mood to talk and trying to give you some space....
