confused- long week needing an ear- here goes Mood
Saturday, September 20, 2008 | A Venting story
My sons therapist asked me if I think he knows he is different-his  thoughts are different from others- it has really made me think about the fact I have never asked him, I have never explained what he has or told him I know he thinks differently and that is why we do some of the things we do to help him- as some of you know by reading my last post- it was a very diffecult week at my house- he was telling me how he was going to kill himself and than went to school to explain it to someone he trusts there- anyway we have an app. with a clinic that speclizes with Kids with autism and adhd- it is in a week - they had a four month waiting list but someone I know knows the director and they pulled some strings not to mention the thoughts he is having. Anyway we are seeing the therapist a couple more times so she can gather additional information to help with the visit-this is when she brought this up- why have I not told him ? am I still in denile ? I am feeling really down right now and confused- I am the only one he has right now and I am just sooooooo tired   really tired   have not slept in days  really tired

    I understand how you feel I have a daughter who is odd, post-traumatic stress disorder chronic, bi-polar and it has been a long haul of years in treatment with her. She started from about the age of 3 and she will be 15. It tears families apart and is very tiring and wearing. She is in special ed and we are still trying to find the right med to help her with her moods and impulsivness. I am alone with her also, I am her only lifeline but sometimes i don't no how much longer i can continue to deal with it. We are strong and surviors, we will make it through. I am here if you need me and i feel all your pain. kelly
