How on earth will I stand this much longer????????? My son is acting out all the time right now! He's been like that for about 1 ½ week... All the strategies we use aren't working!!!! He's just so angry... hurtful in his words... hitting... kicking... screaming...
I feel so sorry for him, because I know that he must really be feeling bad inside right now. Soooooo anxious! Soooooooo stubborn!

But this is so haaaaaaaaaard! I feel like a useless mother!!!! My energy is on the floor now... can't even pick it up again!

(My son has got Asperger's disorder for you who didn't already know....)

((((((((((poetrylover))))))))))))) I am so sorry, sometimes being a mom is so darn hard..... I wish I could take some weight off of your shoulders so that you can at least get up off the floor. Remember I am here if you need to vent as I know many others will also listen.. Now that I have some of that weight please get off the floor before you get all dirty.. Hugs poetrylover..... Linda

((((hugs)))) I hope you can restabilize.

We feed ourselves lies when we use those words of "too " and "can't"... even though I do it myself at times, it only feeds the dragon, imo.

Step back from the situation some, if you can... it is tough, isn't it?

You can do this, you can. Are you writing poetry of all these feelings? TC!

Sweety, have your read Hillbunnyb's posts in General? She's got Asperger's and has a lot of wonderful insight and understanding! Your son is too young right now to know how to take care of himself, but if you read, you will probably find something to help you. Her thread is in General "Three D's and an F" I think.

I could never do that, Jane!!! Never!
I'm gonna ask again tomorrow when we're to see his psychologists... if there is a drug that we can give him to calm down... in these situations.
