[quote=SingleDad24x7][quote=Anonymous]I really think that you need to consider therapy or turning to a minister for pastoral care or maybe look at Women's Center of Vienna? I don't say this because there is anything wrong with you. I say this because your post sounds like you need an outlet, a place for more support for you and the hard work you do. It's not easy but it's not going to get better if you keep choking on your feelings.[/quote]

It sounds like potentially very normal behavior issues for your son. The ongoing therapy (and suggestions from others to investigate whether there might be additional/deeper issues at work) are all good, and ought to be continued. But for your sake, you need to get yourself a support structure. Friends, church (if you're of that mindset), a therapist of your own, support group connected to the school...or even just posting here as a start.

I've been the sole parent for my daughter (14) since my wife passed when DD was 4. It's not easy, but it *can* be done. I know it sounds cliche', but hang in there![/quote]
