Hi all! I am a stay at home mom to my 5yo son. He was diagnosed with ADHD/ODD/Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) about a year ago. Once we were told what the issues were we took a deep breath and researched all of the disorders. We had a great behavior management plan in place, changed his diet, and got him on an IEP with Occupational Therapist (OT) twice a week.
Just when there seemed to be a light at the end of the tunnel it was time for my husband to go on a year long deployment. Did I mention I'm a military wife. It has been two months and DS's anger is getting worse by the day. I think now that the holidays have passed and we have slowed down it has finally set in that daddy is gone.
I love my son dearly! He is a loving, funny, smart, eager to please kid, but because of all going on in his head he can be a hand full and I am drained. I'm hoping this site will give me support, advice, and a place to vent.
