Thank you for your response, I am so glad to have found this site! My son has a great psychotherapist, whom he feels very much at ease with. He has truly been a blessing.As for taking care of myself, I try but there is often not enough hours in the day! I also have a younger daughter, who is often jealous of the attention her brothers behavior demands. But i'm working on finding time for me.
Thanks again for your concern.
