So, I have a 5 yeard old son who has ADHD and is also on the Autism Spectrum. Today has been "one of those days". You know the days when nothing seems to go right, your child is demanding every single second of your attention, and your other child (I have a1 year old daughter also) is also demanding every second of your attention, etc. I am normally not a complainer. But the past few weeks have been awful. Summer is always hardest on my son. We live in Florida so it's WAY too hot to go outside and of course all my little guy wants to do is play video games ALL day. Money's tight, and we're all tired of being in the house. He has at least 1 melt down a day during summer time. I try to do some activites with him, but he gets uninterested pretty quickly. We normally take a week long vacation, but unfortunately we had to cancel it this summer due to our fnancial situation. So, by now I'm feeling a little crazy and overwhelmed. I know there are parents out there in worse situations than mine. I know I should just get over myself, and pick myself uo and carry on, but today I just don't feel like it.

Everything will be ok. It most definately is hard even though we have to "tough it out" . That's what this site is for...to reach out and talk to someone when you need someone to talk to. Finances do make it hard to be able to do anything, but there is always hope and guidance somewhere. ADHD is not fun....especially for a parent of 2. If you need someone to talk to feel free to email me and I would be happy to be there for you! I have two children and know how hard it is. My email is [email protected]. Send me an email and we can chat some more.
