Yuck! I am in a similar place. I have no support as a single mom and the county I live in does not have emergency foster care. Last time I went inpatient I had to fight to get my son back as though I had abused him in some way. Child protective went through my house (even snooped in my dresser drawers), made me have an in home parenting coach 10hrs/wk and worst of all they told me if I ever had to go to the hospital again (for physical or emotional help) they will take my son for good. It sucks!!! There really needs to be more respect and support out there for us single moms who give 110% every day to be everything our kids need us to be.

I prat that your Pdoc can get you in more quickly. If not is there any kind of day treatment program available while they are at school or that offers child care?
