Guest guest Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 Since my 9 year old was diagnosed a little over a year ago, I have found myself isolating myself from others and going out less with my son. Does anybody else find themselves in the same predicament? Am I just lazy? I feel like such a horrible parent. My son doesn't mind staying home one bit, which bothers me even more, which makes me feel worse about my ability to parent. Has anybody else found that their child's diagnosis has affected them emotionally? I have had some serious bouts of depression trying to cope. I read all the books before my son was born. Preparing myself to prepare him for the world, only to learn that none of those books apply to him and I'm back at square one. I worry nonstop about my ability to raise him. Has anybody else experienced these types of emotions.. ? Thanks for listening.. Malisa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
