Dear ,

You're a hero (heroine?)! How do we get through the days? First by the skin of our teeth (that expression just popped into my mind!). And -- for me -- by reaching out to God, and asking for help, for strength, for comfort. It is there, unseen and yet available.

You might cheer up thinking about your ex- dealing with your son, just a moment or two of fantasy. It was a hurtful comment and you deserve hugs instead.

And somehow, you do get stronger, more peaceful, through prayer, and if you don't relate to prayer, then practice meditating. It is amazing that when you stop thinking how peaceful one feels. Your girls can learn to do it with you. If your son will, it might help him too.

The pachelbel canon with ocean sounds is really, really nice to listen to, and wonderful to fall asleep to. here are lots of cd's at amazon sellers cheap.

When I look at myself 40 years ago and now, I'm in awe of how much I am able to love and be patient.

My daughter got well from autism as a child and then at 20, from a pesticide exposure, went back into it worse than the first time. (insecticides have heavy metals in them like mercury). It has been a slower, more difficult walk out of it this time, and yet I have been given the patience and the strength to start all over again. It is there for you.

God bless and Love to you,

Francine

Hi I am new to this group and wanted to read all the messages first,but I needed to vent before I go crazy. I can't even look at someonewithout crying, I can't stop crying. I am a single mom with 3 childrenwith medical needs. My son (who will be 8 tomorrow) has aspergers andSPD(sensory seeker to the extreem!) I just started getting help a fewmonths ago, therapy,OT. I've delt with it all on my own until now! Ihave no one in my life who understands our life so I stay to myself. Ican't listen to anymore screaming or crying or punching and kickingwalls! My daughters are so stressed they cry and act out. Feels likewe are falling apart! I know tomorrows a new day but right now I'msick to my stomach and so stressed my brain won't even work! I homeschool my kids and never have a second to myself. The last time I hada break was when I had a hysterectomy (what a break). My son told metoday he just wants to

live with his dad and never come back hereagain! That hurt! I'm just to sensative today I guess. Sorry for therant I usually half way have it together but despite what everyonesays No I am not superwoman! I'm just trying to cope and survive likeeveryone else. Can anyone tell me how they make it through these days?Thanks.
