    My son and I had a fantastic relationship and were very close. My ex-wife in my own son's words "mum is going to take me away from you". Now it has been 6 years and I have not seen or heard of my son, but some psychologists say this is treated with mindfulness. Can someone please help

    It sounds like you are grieving for the loss of your relationship with your son  - a very painful thing to be going through! I wonder if you have reached out for support to work through your grief re this? Perhaps this is what you have done, and counsellors have offered mindfulness strategies as a way to be with your grief without it consuming you. It's so hard to be in a situation that you may have no or very little control over changing, that you long to be different. Counselling may continue to be a supportive space to help you cope with this. All the very best.
