[QUOTE="Jena, post: 395774, member: 4514"] ((hugs)) to you i'm so sorry you had to do that, i've been exactly there yet i run to the bathroom because difficult child simply will not let me leave the house. we get so overwhelmed especially now with the pressure of holidays, their behaviors worsen due to excitement anticipation and well we get more pressured. dont' beat yourself up you are only human we aren't Gods, we get upset hurt and even cry. Our kids just think because we're mom's we're supposed to take all they throw our way gracefully. I have thought about it past few days and i do think at times it's great for them to see us hurt, let them get how their actions affect us. Let them see human raw emotion besides their own disregard for anyone but themselves. I for one when i get this way and man i've been getting this way alot due to difficult child home with me every single day and literally not 5 minutes to myself since return of hospital I remove myself just like you did. Yet i dont' want till i want to rip her hair out. I can feel it coming in me, my own signs of anger that warmth that starts in your belly and slowly increases to the top of your head my hands begin to shake lol. it's crazy. i get out before the hands start. i lock my bedroom door, and i sit in my rm or bathroom and do not go back into public space i call it till i'm under control somewhat. it soo isn't easy yet do not beat yourself up. we have the patience of saints all of us. it's soo hard not to just give thema good wack like alot of our parents would of done years ago if we were disrespectful. (((Hugs again)))) [/QUOTE]
