(((((PUZZLE)))))

I think it is easier for people to say "get over it". I wish it was that easy. I remember in the beginning of my depression my mother used to say "i dont understand why you just cant snap out of it". I told her over and over, I just couldnt. I wish i could. It would be so much easier that way. After sitting down with my mother and really discussing the inner feelings I was having, she explained to me that she felt like she was a failure as a mother and that she was powerless because she couldnt do anything to help me. She told me that there was nothing worse in life then to see your own child going through something that you cant control or help. I never thought of it that way. It made perfect sense to me. I dont think your mom means to come across that way. Maybe she is just feeling powerless to help you.
As far as Adam goes. I think there was another post in which you said he had been arrested or something like that. I do think that you must concentrate on yourself and getting yourself well. Outside, negative influences can make that very difficult.
I hope things get better for you.
Please keep us posted. Take care
