[QUOTE="Wonderful Family, post: 238408"] You asked for more info about [I]"When you say "us" and "it", what do you mean, if you don't mind my asking?"[/I] "Us" refers to all the people that bug and cause problems for difficult child - it was always someone elses fault (still is-but he is learning to stop and listen no matter what he feels like). We could never get anywhere with this mindset. "It" refers to the anger issues/bipolar (that is how difficult child describes his problems). Just before he was hospitalized, he camly told me he was sick of dealing with the anger issues and wanted to know what he had to do so it did not happen again. difficult child was on the verge of psychosis at this time. Now it's the anger issues fault - but only he can solve it. We can only give him tools. I had the kid psychiatric hospital docs were wondering why he was in the hospital (they actually checked him aggressively for child abuse). I think I could better explain this today. He had fallen over the edge - but he was still holding on with one hand; but he couldn't do it much longer. The hospitalization made difficult child deal with some of his emotions and he could no longer hide - we finally saw first hand just how irrational his thinking was; and how very good he is at hiding it. You may find that you have to help the psychiatrists in this area if they can't see it. I've got you and your son in my prayers that you find healing and stability soon. Listen to the others; take this time to recharge a bit. You've done a fabulous job raising your son by yourself and making a future for both of you. [/QUOTE]
