[QUOTE="kris, post: 22344, member: 74"] the answer to your three questions is no, no & no. strong as the temptation is to simply pack a bag & walk away we don't get to do that. we do get to learn how to take care of ourselves....with-therapy, medication & simply time to ourselves when we need it. have you been seeing a therapist? he/she won't be able to solve your problems, but you need to have a person who is squarely in your corner.....someone who can help you negotiate with-husband for more support.....listen to your frustrations. you might also find some medications help...antidepressant/anti anxiety medications??? your family doctor can probably get you started on a trial of medications. the other thing i would suggest is make a list of the suggestions people have made to you. add to that the things you think need to be worked on. then prioritize that list. pick the top three & start working on those. each time you can check one off you up another. helping our kids is not instant coffee. it takes time, stamina, organization. the one other thing i'd suggest is that you pull together a Parent Report: [url]http://www.conductdisorders.com/community/threads/parent-report-updated.225/[/url]. it will help tremendously when you start the evaluation process. kris [/QUOTE]
