[QUOTE="buddy, post: 521037, member: 12886"] OH my dear new board sister!!! You have a houseful of difficult child's (gifts from god)...and issues with your partner too?? Holy cow. I am really sorry. I too am typically easy going, happy, etc.... even now, not really depressed...but I have times of anxiety (over situational issues as you do too...real life problems! we have a right to be upset right??) We have others here from the UK by the way! some not living in the UK now but some are. Several members from other countries too so you are in great company. My son does not run away but is aggressive and uses inappropriate words/language too. And I dont have six others to care for. when he is in a panic he is just as upset with any adult. He does seem to try to calm around police but our cops have guns and tasers! They would not use it on him (well unless he had a weapon himself I guess) but my son knows they have this and at his mental level he is afraid. Do you have places like we do called residential treatment centers? A long term hospital/residential kind of setting....school and everything is done there. could that be an option? Maybe when the social service people come you can ask them for services for her? We have options (well sadly, different counties respond differently but in general) to voluntarily seek child protection and others of us have county case managers (public health nurses or social workers) in the disability area of our child (developmental disabilities, brain injury, mental health etc...) and they help us find services. (again depends on the area...should be the same everywhere but it is not). Do you have any options like that where you are living? In any event, just want you to know that at least we can help you by giving you a place to talk. We DO understand how intense this is and living in a community that does not respond appropriately to your children's diagnosis must be really difficult. Many marriages suffer when there are the added stressors of special needs children. I am not in a relationship but many here are and will be able to share with you their stories. Welcome, keep posting. I am glad you decided to join us, the internet wipes away boarders and brings us close to each other, we are all parents who love our kids and are struggling with intense and at times outrageous issues.
