[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] For many of us therapy is not an answer to lack of time, resources, or support. I personally could use a respite worker, a mom who gives a damn, a crisis hotline, an weekly visit with an Behavior therapist, Social Security retirement credits, an insurance program that pays at least for part of my kid’s therapies and pays for our legitimate medical claims instead of wasting dozens of hours of my time so I don’t get bilked out of a couple grand, a state waiver (been on a waiting list for four years), funds for a special needs attorney, and some time to go work out. A therapist isn’t going to help with any help of that. Those things would actually help. Shelling out $120/week to cry in front of person who doesn’t even have a SN kid does NADA for me, except for the script I get for Xanax at the end. I wouldn’t need the Xanax if I had access to the above. [/quote] I am saving this. When my husband cheated and left me with an infant, everyone is like "omg you need therapy to deal with this"... no it's cool he is a jerk and I am over it. I need to figure out how to raise this kid on my own When my son was dx with ASD "you need to look out for YOU TOO, and should see a therapist".. yes because I spend hours driving him to his therapies and trying to juggle single motherhood and working full time, yes let me add another thing to go to every week so I can tell someone "this is hard..." no shit this is hard, lol "therapy" comments and religious comments "God only gives you what you can haaaandle" (this one makes me ragey), or "keep the faith! God will see you through this"... REALLY? Well why can't God just cure my kid and allow my child to live a healthy happy life! No? Oh how nice.. yeah let me praise that. No thanks. [/quote] And I'm saving both of these. You're damn rignt![/quote]
