I have eight and six year olds. Eight yr old has ADHD with distinct ASD traits and six yr old has high-functioning ASD. They are both on fire at moment for unknown reasons and I'm so drained

I got to the point that I could say "I'm getting angry" and they'd lay off a bit. Just don't do anything you might regret. BPD is often passed down. We often treat our kids the way we were treated. We don't need to be raising the next generation of BPD's. Not trying to be harsh....just trying to make a point. Been there/done that, and it can be very, very hard.
I try my very best not to cut loose in front of them but I was in tears 3 times last week which isn't like me at all.

Last time I got this stressed, I left the country. Bad mummy
