I can only imagine how tough things must be around your home. It's obvious that you & your H are stressed to the gills, and have every reason to be. I don't know how you deal with the challenges of your child and home school also. Does your 3 yr old stay home all day or is she in some sort of preschool program? Was your decision to home school out of concern that your son would not receive enough individual attention in public school systems? You may not see why I would be asking these questions, but as I told another poster, we are like family here and everything that affects your homelife is concern to us.

I respect what you are trying to do for your son and I hate that your H has bailed like he has, but don't you believe that it is due more to the stress than just the MR itself? I bet if the two of you were alone on a loooong vacation that he would be like a different person. Finance trouble and problems with children will bring you down quicker than anything I know in a M.

Bless your heart for hanging in there and trying to keep it held together. How is your energy level? You must be exhausted....or else running on nervous energy.

Has your H ever taken AD meds before?

Hope you will keep posting. It does help.


It is not about what you feel should work in your M. It is about doing the work that gets the right results. Do what works!
