[quote=Anonymous]Op, hugs. It’s so hard. I found that it was necessary for me to compartmentalize. I have other kids and it was simply essential when they were young. My kid with SN has imlroved immensely but still isn’t mainstreamed and won’t go to college or live independently. But we have a life that is happy and fun often now he is 11. I’ve posted about this before but I think my saving graces were having other kids and honestly, trauma fatigue. I was so miserable and anxious for so long that I simply couldn’t do that anymore and live and I choose to live. We have resources which helps. You need respite. It’s not a want. It’s a need. Get ahold of any and all resources to make that happen. Nanny if you can afford it. A full time one. An au pair too. Get a shi$ ton of help. Get therapies going many times a week. Get classes scheduled. There are SN sports, yoga classes, martial arts, horseback riding. Schedule it all, go, or have someone take him. We kept our SN kid chock a block busy. [/quote]
