I can't imagine what it must be like to be trying your hardest to love and care for someone, and getting this in response.
I'm so impressed with you for reaching out and sharing. And if I can help remind you that you are doing a great job, even when it doesn't feel like it, I'm happy to try. But I feel you need concrete practical help, and I regret that I can't do anything in that respect. I hope you can find the strength to reach out again for help.
Do either of the kids go to school. Can you ask the head teacher for help? Or your doctor? Or kids services? I volunteered at a kids summer camp, the purpose of which really was to give the parents a break. Because caring for the carers is so very important. So I hope there is something out there to allow you some self care.
They both are in school and they can't help him because he's an angel at school I get anxiety around d now because he's gonna be home any min and my Husband won't help
That sounds incredibly overwhelming—I really feel for you. I hope you don’t mind me asking… is the father involved in any way? Sometimes having that other parental figure, especially if the child responds to their authority, can make a big difference in setting boundaries and calming behaviors. You shouldn’t have to carry this alone.
