Thank you for your kind and understanding words. When my son first started therapy a few months ago, the therapist had us fill out some forms to check for ADHD, but she said it didn't look like that's the issue. personally, I think he has inherited my depression, he's already si-ing by picking the skin on his legs until they bleed. His legs are covered in scars and scabs. I'm starting to think he should be on meds too. I know I can't function without my meds, and maybe that's what he needs too.

Sleep is definitely an issue. Dylan goes to bed at 7pm (my husband says he has to earn a later bedtime), but he's always up playing until I don't know when, and probably during the night again too. I KNOW he's not getting enough sleep, but I don't know what to do about it. All I can do is send him to bed.

It's been a horrible afternoon, and I am emotionally drained.

Taking her hand he softly says

For the first time you can open your eyes
And see the world without your sorrow
Where no one knows the pain you left behind
And all the peace you could never find
Is waiting there to hold and keep you
Welcome to the first day of your life

Just open up your eyes as I lay you down tonight
Safe on the other side
No more tears to cry
