[quote=Anonymous]OP, I just wanted to say that I hear your pain and exhaustion and know how you feel. Your are not alone in feeling this way!! Going on an anti-depressant helped me tremendously. It brought the spikes of anxiety, depression and agitation into normal, manageable ranges. And the ability to talk through my frustrations and anger like you're doing with your therapist. In terms of the exhaustion and stress with a SN child, so much is finding a way for YOU to get breaks, to schedule times for decompression and deep breathes. That could be finding someone who works well with your child to come in for 1-2 hours every other day or every day, even just a couple of times a week, to let you do a reset. That and the antidepressants can go a long way in helping you have a clear head to figure out the steps you want/need to take next with your child and with your husband. Please know there are many of us out there who understand and echo your feelings! [/quote]
