I raised my son alone and he was ADHD and his acting out would literally drive me up the wall at times. I learned that if I blew up at him it was going to cause long term harm and would only make his illness worse. I learned to take myself out of the situation when I felt I just could not handle it any longer. I would sometimes count to 10, 20, 50 whatever was needed to regain my composure and then I could go back to my son and take care of his needs better. Sending you very gentle ((( ))) Patricia
