[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 428907, member: 3419"] Hi Kjs, so sorry I didn't respond to this sooner. It sounds like things have calmed down a bit. I, too, am glad that difficult child didn't have a fancier car. I hear you. I've had so, so, so many days like that, I cannot begin to tell you. Yrs ago, I went on medications. Felt so-so. Went to a therapist and complained, just like you did. Even more. "I've been taking these stupid medications, and the Student From H*ll is still messing up my life, husband is still a workaholic, difficult child is still raging and never sleeps, easy child is constantly talking and busybusybusy with-friends and events, I'm sick of being Rotary President, and my new dog is a fear biter. I want them all just to disappear!" She said, "The medication isn't supposed to make them disappear." "Well, that was my plan." She just smiled. And helped me make a better plan. (Although her plan actually included making the S.Amer student disappear on the next flt out, and the dog disappear back to the shelter.) I only followed part of it, but wth. ;) Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately) when I get that run down and angry, I get sick. Inevitably, I will get a cold or stomach flu. My body's way of saying, "Stop!" The Year From H*ll ended up even worse when I rewarded myself with-Epstein Barr. So, it can get worse. I hate to say it, but I'd recommend medications, too. You don't have to do it forever. Maybe just until your difficult child finishes college? [/QUOTE]
