[QUOTE="wakeupcall, post: 150804, member: 2287"] Karen, I'm so sorry. These children are very difficult to live with, day in and day out. As you can see by my signature, my difficult child has been in the same boat. He has most of the issues that you have told us about here and then some. HOWEVER, we have no other children at home. It's bad enough what he puts our little Yorkies through, and to even think of what he could do to a sibling sends chills down my spine. Just yesterday I made him an appointment. with a neuropsychologist for further testing. Then when I got out the FIVE testings he's had done in the last four years to copy to take with us, I took a step back and promptly called and cancelled it. I don't know if HE can do it anymore...but I decided I'm all through. I will keep him in his medications, but after that, I'm all done for now. I feel like I'm dragging everyone along with me and that NO one is on the same page. He's been in weekly therapy for years and none of it has helped, so last month I cancelled all appts. with the therapist until further notice. No therapy, no more testing, no more of me falling apart. Self-survival. He is what he is and if what I've done for twelve years isn't enough, then it just isn't. Detach 101. Your son is putting you and the rest of your family through a living you-know-what. You must protect the rest of your family. They have the right to a peaceful life and if your home is like mine, it's anything but peaceful. We know you love your son....be strong, for all of you. [/QUOTE]
