What happen to my patience?



Recommended Posts

As you may or may not know my son has autism. Lately I been losing my patience but I would never hurt my son. When I feel I might hurt him or its just to much I put him in the crib. He crys & crys but gets over it & stays quite.

He has learn how to climb to the point that he gets on the Window & starts banging hard on the window & one day someone will call & once again gonna deal with ACS. He has broken the window blinds.

I think you're just being honest, Mami. I lost patience with my twins more than once! Normal part of parenting, but much harder with a special needs child, I would imagine!

Yes I have a hard job but knowing I can't do much since my son doesn't really understands drives me up the walls. I'm doing some summer planning with the kids. I figure some fresh air will help him & keep his wondering eyes looking around. He does love to go out.

There are some wonderful schools for autistic or asperger kids nowadays.

My nephew was diagnosed very young, my sister researched and found an excellent school in detroit area- now he is a marine and an air traffic controller. We are very proud of him.

How old is your son? I have 2 sons on the spectrum 23 & 16. The 23yo is Aspergers and the 16 yo is more classically autistic. When the 16yo was young he had intensive in-home therapy for 4 years that was modeled on Greenspan's Floortime method. He progressed really far and is now entering 11th grade and taking advanced classes. He still has his issues and quirks requiring a full time aide at school. He is college-bound and plans to study engineering. It gets better! If you haven't yet, you should look for a local Autism Society chapter and see if they have and support group meetings.

My son is 3 years old. He has been in school since 1 1/2 years old. It's hard when you feel like a single parent. I have no help except my 16 year old. I'm trying. He attends summer school also I gives me a break. He has learn how to climb everything & is breaking all the blinds.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
