[QUOTE=", post: 4410"] Momtoalex, I had a lot of "yeah, we do that too" moments when reading your post. Sometimes I feel sorry for my easy child, cuz she is older & I won't pretend that I don't at times fantasize about how different family life would have been if we'd stopped at one. She asked me the other day if it meant that she was bad, to wish that sometimes. Nat, thanks for your comments but it looks better on paper than it does in everyday life!! But when I write it down, I *can* see the progress we've made in the past year. Sometimes, especially in the bad moments, it's just too easy to think that nothing's changed. ------------------ difficult child son (9), diagnosis Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED) + ? and gifted/Learning Disability (LD), likely ODD, possibly bipolar; current medications Paxil, Wellbutrin Dexedrine. easy child daughter (12), also gifted/Learning Disability (LD), calm temperament but normal "pubertal" lipping-off & minor non-compliance; some anxiety noted. "Normal" nuclear bio-family, both parents work full-time; husband diagnosis depression, on Wellbutrin & Paxil, currently a treatment team player; me diagnosis depressed, 20 mg/day fluoxetine & much better, thank you all.
