is getting to me. I do so love difficult child and in some aspects he is doing so much better than he was. He is rarely violent anymore (still threatens but rarely follows through).
All of that being said, the constantness of his gfgness is driving me up a wall! If it's not one thing, it's the other. His moods come and go so quickly I can't keep up. He turns on a dime. The yelling, the complaining, the threatening, the put downs-grrrrrrr! Let's not forget about the impulsiveness, his social inappropriateness, his stubbornness-yuck!
Thank goodness he does have a tender side and we do get to still catch glimpses of this side. I know some of this he can't help. His executive function issues get in the way as do his cognitive issues.
I feel guilty that I feel so relieved each night once he is finally asleep.
Thanks for listening to my whine-I'll probably have a better outlook tomorrow -it's just been one of those weekends.
