[QUOTE="Ropefree, post: 214463, member: 6271"] Oh darlin...you do need some help and rest and a massage and some pampering... I am so puzzled by the trouble getting the psyc evaluations...it is repeated over and over on this site..have you never gotten one or are they declining to respond to the periodic evaluations? I assume through the DOE. Even is you have to wait to get it just put the process in motion and then keep going on all fronts...is my stradegy. What are they going to say..NO? No is an answer I as a parent do not take when it is inappropriate. I think you can find some information about respite through the department of health...and when you call the person who has some info may have other ideas about where to look for the support you need for your situation. Since you are coping with so much and not feeling well to boot maybe have one notebook you can list all your wishes and over time keep track what you actually do achieve over time. When the household is so busy it is easy to feel like you never got out of bed when actually you do a lot. Maybe, if you do not already, you need a mothers helper. It is one of the miricals of motherhood that angles do appear. The fact that you do say what you need can connect you to others. I desperately needed a compitant person to give me a break for any amount of time when my one child was little...and low and behold a teenager out on their own for the first time who had younger siblings offered to in exchange for meals. For a breakfast plate I had a time to go for a walk every morning that truely made my life better. ANd for a dinner plate I had a fresh and enthusiastic personality for my child to interact with while I centered on the other things that are just easier to do when attention isn't devided. Also maybe you can arrange playdates for your children so that you have some complete down time regularly. i am not a fan of screaming...I think that sometimes children are having to work way to hard to get attention and that they learn to start at the extreme level as a result. With your session coming up make a list of things that you are having go on and look into what works for other families. Giving attention is very often how the pattern is redirected. Yet until the meathod is fully understood and implimented 100% half measures can make matters worse. Hopefully you have other families near by that can benifit from the playmates in your home. When you do have time for yourself try to remember to just relax. I was so caught up in the burden I was sitting in a landry mat alone for the first time and I realized that that was not what I wanted to do with time I had available. I did not think ahead at all. Maybe ask your children to help you with your self care like have a drink of water party toghether through the day. Routene ceremonious get togethers add a special element. Maybe take turns who serves the water. Interruption to play sessions help younge ones to renew too.
