Feeling frustrated right now

Feeling frustrated right now

It's been one thing after another this morning first my sons routine was put out of wack because his favourite breakfast ran out yesterday and I haven't had the chance to get him more so he went into tantrum mode and everything was a struggle his clothes were too cold put them in the dryer then they were too hot. His socks weren't the right colour, his shoes were too tight, then I had to bribe him with riding his scooter to school because it was after 8 o'clock. Everything was a tantrum. Granted he doesn't have the regular screaming tantrums other kids have, he sits on the bed puts the blanket over his head covers his ears closes his eyes and sings (baby shark at the moment but it changes). Finally got him to school and managed to be there on time so no tantrum there.

Got home and realised I left my keys in the house. Thankfully managed to open the window near the front door

There are studies out there that show the good and negative sides of siblings of ASD children (which is effectively the role they would have despite being aunt/uncles) @Former-Member .

Perhaps even speak to one of your son's medical professionals about it if you are concerned about the impact on him.

Re: Feeling frustrated right now

Sounds like a lot has happened in the last few days @Former-Member, @Former-Member provides some great advice about speaking to your son's medical team about the impact. This is definitely a big decision to make, so speaking to others about the impact not only on your son but on yourself and other member's of your family is important. Have you had a chance to book some time to talk about it?
