You are not ALONE I FEEL YOUR Pain! I'm looking into getting some outside care for my mom, im in a similiar situation and its like hell. Unfortunately the only releif i get is when i have a few drinks to numb or kill the pain...although i'm not advocating it!!

All these other drugs and crap the doctors hand out just poison you more. Someone suggested meals on wheels...I'm thinking about it.

I'm sorry to here about your autistic child, try to remember its not his fault he has autism. Does he go to a Day program to be worked with?

Do you or ever get out with friends, relatives? Can someone give u a hand once in a while? I really know how ur feeling i'm at my wits ends too. Being a caregiver is very hard
especially when your stuck doing it all yourself!!

I'm going to take a computer class this winter or spring, i dont care im going to start getting out more, sounds like u need to get out a little here or there yourself. Besides the crummy part-time job.

Please feel free to PM me aanytime if u have any questions or just want to talk. Im sure we could relate with many things!

Good luck and pop into chat if u get a chance lots of good people there...peace out, good luck, Ziggy1
