[QUOTE="Wiped Out, post: 446565, member: 1631"] Adding in my welcome and supportive hugs. You have definitely found a soft place to land. Others have given lots of good ideas. I think it's really important that you find some "me" time with everything going on. Trust me, I know this is easier said than done. My husband and I have done a lot of tag teaming over the years. For us exercise is huge! I also like to read, cook, and nap (yes, it's probably an escape but some times I need that too). You are not a horrible monster. What you are dealing with is very difficult. I know there are many times I do not like my difficult child; the love part is always there. There are times he is ready to give me a hug and I'm not ready. I really try to look for those bright spots and he still gets hugs-plenty. It's really hard even when we know that it isn't really directed at us and much of it he can't control to not take things personally. Around here we talk about growing rhino skin so we don't take things so personally (again easier said than done). [/QUOTE]
