[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 608911, member: 1550"] I actually enjoyed the hospital once I got used to it and got to know the staff...lol. I learned a lot too. I was one of the few literate patients there and it was a teaching hospital. They would tell me a lot and I learned. But then I had to go back to hospitals twice for medication reactions and neither hospital was as good as the first one. Still, they kept me for a few weeks, until the medications were adjusted. They sure don't do that now. I think you should quit blaming yourself. Lots of personality quirks and a psychiatric history in your kid's background and you can't control that. It's not YOU. It has nothing to do with how you parent your kiddos. Once you get them diagnosed and treated, things should improve, especially for your little guy. In the meantime, you need to make sure you get time outs and time to yourself, even if it's just a bath with fragrant candles and bubblebath and a good book (one of my naughty secrets of what I like to do in order to chill out. I have dropped a few books in the tub!!). You need to be able to chill out and watch a movie while Dad watches the kids for a few hours. You need to get out of the house without the kids. And you need to keep coming back here so we can remind you that this is not your fault. Also, remember, you don't know what goes on in the homes of other people. Many, many people have trouble with their kids. [/QUOTE]
