[QUOTE="nvts, post: 371469, member: 3814"] Hey ML! What type of interventions do you have in place for him? Quite often, depression in children manifests itself as anger, opposition and defiance. I'm thinking that AS is Aspergers (some write AS mean Autistic Spectrum - not that it means a hill o' beans that much!). If it is, he's probably got the self-esteem of a gnat! I'd also keep in mind that husband has a lot on his plate right now, so his "supportive side" may not be showing up to the party lately. His level of tolerence is probably way lower than normal so he's not going to be too patient. You're not a terrible person for not liking Manster all that much (or husband for that matter - lol!). What medications is he taking right now? You ARE doing a great job. Now I'm going to get on your case though. "WHEN IS THE LAST TIME YOU DID SOMETHING PEACEFUL FOR YOURSELF?" there - I yelled. 50 lashes with a wet noodle! Even if you're broke - take a walk alone, window shop, take in a movie - one that you know both of them would LOVE to see...AND THEN DON'T BRING THEM!!! (sorry - that was my evil, spiteful side kicking in for a few minutes). Is there a beauty school nearby? Find out what it costs for a mani/pedi if that's the sort of thing that floats your boat. If none of these appeal to you - I think Star* still has Raoul. If you're nice, she might do a loaner! Take a deep breath - you're a wonderful person who loves people that aren't any good at showing you that they hear you! Beth [/QUOTE]
