.........I'm getting feelings of not loving my 6 month old daughter. She really is a difficult baby and my first child, a boy, is such an angel. I'm hoping that returning to my higher dose of Prozac will change those feelings.........

Please tell me the name of your six month old daughter, I’d like to know more. I don’t know whether you have read my posts about my family, but I have 9 children. I have learned, too late for the oldest ones, that some of the “difficulties” I experienced with my children and still do are possibly childhood manifestations of the problems I have (i.e. “mental illness”). Through this new lense of understanding I am presently looking back to my parents, aunts and uncles, brothers and sisters, and nieces and nephews, especially, my youngest children who are still at home.
With the oldest I took constant criticism for their “excessiveness”. Even I assumed that I must be a bad mother, and as a consequence I can now see that I made many parenting errors. I would like to talk more, if possible, about your little girl. Also, are you nursing her? My thyroid went topsy-turvy when I was nursing. Now I know what I could have done differently, didn’t know then, just suffered.
I would enjoy hearing more about your “type of teaching”. My life’s goal is to discover more and learn how to help children with “mental illness”. Although I hate that word. Our minds are not “ill”, they just work differently. In fact, those of us who have these “psycho” problems are some of the most creative and intelligent, articulate, etc., people I know. Have you noticed the posts here? I would like to get to know you better, and some of the babblers here have taken up my invitation to write me an email. We are trying to find additional ways to chat with each other besides just the PS center.
I have the luxury of being home, for this space in time. I am homeschooling my 8 year-old daughter, my 6 year-old son and my 4 year-old son. My 11 year old daughter stays home every-other-day. My 13 year old son goes to school but is being taught through an “individualized education problem” which is sponsored by the federal government. He had some serious learning problems, yet he is highly intelligent. He told me today that one of his teachers told another student to choose a different friend because my son (Larry) was not very intelligent! WHAT A STUPID TEACHER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Larry has SO MUCH TO GIVE!!!!!!!!!! And she can’t even see it!
Anyway, I hope you’ll write. My address is SueDoeN@aol.com
