Warning: here comes another person venting
Picked up difficult child and easy child from in-law's house after I got off work, pulled out of the driveway and the screaming started. Tried distractions but it continued. Flew into a rage when I decided to check mail before pulling into our driveway. Refused to get out of car. had to carry him kicking and screaming into the house. Yes, all of the neighbors avoid us.
Ranting and yelling continued, threw shoes at me. I could not get him to calm down. realizing that this was going to be an exact replay of last evening (he was up until 11pm trying to control me) I decided that I did not have the energy to deal with it any longer. husband works nights and I just could not fight physically and mentally with difficult child one more evening.
Phoned mother in law to tell her I was driving him the Children's Hospital so that his neurologist or psychologist could admit him or something ( I wanted her to watch easy child while I did this.) She told me that I was overreacting. So, I brought him to her house instead.
I wish that I could run away! or that this was all a bad dream and I would wake up. :cry: Perhaps I have a lower tolerance to all of the insanity because my Mother had some sort of undiagnosed psychosis that tortured me throughout my childhood? She chose to medicate with marijuana and other drugs which only made the situation worse.
Will discuss with husband tomorrow and phone neuro and psychologists on Monday. I can't take much more.
