I feel like Im the biggest parent failure this week!!!:cussing: my kid isnt turning his work in, I can't get my 4 yr old to potty train for #2 AT ALL, Im using all our money on meds which have been giving me nighttime hallucinations ( see I knew I was messed up ) dr says its mixture of meds, exhaustion and stress YA THINK!! :rant: my family had the flu last weekend and yay Im on my cycle now. they are messed up too. I think someone has a voodoo doll of me and Id like to take the pins out!
I really dont want to do the holidays. my hubbys siblings all make money making me feel like a huge leech and the only family I have besides his is my sister. thank god I have her! but im so stupid for feeling this, I miss my mom and brothers during the holidays. I know I can't have them in my life, its not worth the stress and mind games. I just feel sooo overwhelmed this week I cant take anymore. I hate feeling vulnerable to my fears and tonight I swear they are pressing in.
sorry for this all, I dont know who else to melt down on. my spouse and kids cant handle anymore emotional bouts this week. please Heavenly Father, hold on to me because my knees are shaking!

Sometimes kids just don't have an easy time learning to have a bowel movement where they should. If he goes at around the same time every day, you might try having him sit on the toilet and read to him until he goes --- and lots of credit for doing it. One of my nephews was almost five years old before he could feel a movement coming --- one day he just started going to the bathroom. Try not to worry about it. Our children can feel our stress and it can actually effect them too.
How old is the one who isn't turning in his school work? Is he in grade 3?
Hugs,
Donna

Your week just reminded me of what this comedian said "that it's a dog eat dog world, and there is always someone nipping at your a**"
Your son will be fine some kids just need extra time. He'll let you know when he's ready.
Isn't it great to have a place to go to just to vent and truely be understood!!
Hugs and blessings

I know how you feel. When I first was diagnosed, I felt like I was totally neglecting my daughter. My parents had to step in and watch her a lot and we spent the night at their place often. I secretly wanted to move back in after having them wait on me so lovingly. It was hard to let others take care of me even though it was my parents. This is the worst part of the year for a lot of people (not just IC). They call it the holiday blues, I get it every year. It will pass, and you will feel better. I know, easier said than done and I hate it when people tell me that too. But it will, I promise! I'm sending a prayer up for you right now!

Bromwynn, you can be sure that the Lord will never let you go. I'm so sorry things are maximum stress for you right now. I could skip the Holidays completely, but too may people want to eat the things I cook.;-)
Your children will be grown and gone before you can blink your eyes. Take it from someone who knows.
Try to relax, take some deep slow breaths. This, too, shall pass. (((Hugs)))
