[QUOTE="tired Cheryl, post: 85711, member: 4109"] Hi DebDeb: Sorry that you were not able to inhabit "fantasy island" for very long. These rollercoasters are exhausting aren't they? I can really relate to you not wanting to hug and kiss ten minutes after a meltdown. I feel the same way. After being hit on, spit on, scratched and told how much I am hated for the most trivial things I am not in the mood for kissing and hugging like nothing happened either. It's not that I am punishing or pushing difficult child away, more like I am not in that place yet after being traumatized physically and emotionally. I know that so much of what is going on with my difficult child is out of his control but it does not make it any easier for me to snap out of defensive mode once he starts attacking me. "Feeling Battered" was a great subject line by another poster recently because battered is how we feel so often. I hope that things get better for you and hope that your difficult child not having problems at school continues. That adds an additional layer of issues to deal with. Take care [/QUOTE]
