i'm torn apart

yesterday we went out. It was abetter idea than being trapped at home again with ateenage girl desperate to do. Bad , bad choice. She was rude foul mouthed and aggresive. Or she was distraught and sobbing. My partner is now leaving because I let myself be ditacted too by a child. she hates him and me because I do what he wants. I try to please everyone and I dont who who I am anymore.

I do know I am soon going to be on my own. I am facing losing our house. The future beckons, the kids gone. My son, daughter will be adults as well equipped for the world as I could do.She will survive. she is strong. I dont know if I will. 15 years living with Aspergers has taken its toll.

An alcoholic ex. a 16 yr old son who spends as much time away from us as he can, a partner leaving. Friends that have disappeared along the way.

My future lies ahead. I cant see anything except lonliness, more of the desolute lonliness i live with every day.

  • I don’t know if I have the right to comment on this, as I don’t have any children with Aspergers. But I can remember being a 15 year old girl with Aspergers and understand what we can be like. The teenage years are so chaotic and adding Aspergers into the mix…

    I have nothing but gratitude and respect for my own mother for putting up with me during this time and (I hope I’m not over stepping my bounds here) but I think your daughter will feel the same gratitude towards you in the future. I know this may not be much help for the moment but don’t loose hope. You dedication will mean so much to her when she’s older
