Sometimes the obsession would be over what life would be like without one of my kids. Would I still hear their voice? Did I take more pics of one than the others? Did I save any of their artwork etc. It can really invade my thoughts & I have to be careful not to let it snowball & get out of control.

I haven't watched or listened to any, ANY news broadcasts for 9 yrs. I did watch the 11pm news the nite president Obama was first elected. I wanted to witness that. But I can't tell you anything about the news except what I hear from others.
I had to stop it Bec it became so terribly triggering for me.
It's helped a great deal & ignorance is bliss in my case.
