new and lost

jenjen74

hello

im jen - i have a 13 year old son who under going consultation for asc finding the whole thing daunting.

he has a history of wanting to harm himself,violent agressive outbursts,conforms at school extrememly academic but looses it at home - there only me and also my daughter 9 who his sibling.

family dont want to know - don't agree with the process nor want to accept this could be a huge possibility.in their eyes he short of a good hiding and some severe discipline. I split from their dad nearly 3 years ago and a lot of things have come to light since,more so since nov 2013 as my son tried to take his own life with a blind cord a week before my ex took me to court regarding contact with the children,my sons excuse was he didnt want to see his dad and thought this was the answer,but obviously not - emergency crisis team at a&e got involved and from then everythin has spiralled.....

appointments with camhs, speech and language and so many more...

Parents

  • omg!!! wow .... n i thought it was me - me failing as a parent.

    im struggling in all of this alone.when he blows he blows but sometimes he has to goad me as to getting him down if that makes sense, he has hurt me as in pulled muscles etc never any physical marks on me.

    sometimes find it difficult as there arent any restraining techniques to be used - im told to ring the police bearing in mind he is only 13 he 6ft tall and has the strength of two fellas when in meltdown mode( now i been told wot they are) my daughter suffers also cos majority of the time is taken up with him.

    i have no one to confide in or turn too - tho all the outside agencies that have been involved since nov last year have been amazing n if it wasnt for them i wouldnt have known any of this
