    I need some encouragement

      Kradle--jump into those PJ's and have a little cry--but then let it go and have a peaceful sleep. That is my wish for you. :l

        Where did you order the -Glut from??? I went to a local health food store and bought some kudzu because I was running low and didn't have time to order it off of here. I got totally ripped off......I paid the same price for 60 capsules at the store when I could've gotten 130 capsules through here! Grrrrrrr

                      Sorry for checking so late ladies and thanks so much for all your hand holding.

                      Geez Luoise...Well, Mama I did tell Matt I would be devasted and I did break down. I posted to you Dest on another thread cause i can never find my way back here..
                      So I managed to get everyone to school and then got another call from the Dean.. apparently our baby boy thought it would be funny to write some of the most disgusting stuff in his 'planner' which though Matt thought was private , it was intercepted by a teacher and now we have detention number 2 this Thursday.

                      This is just rough rough with him. I did get a referral though with a specialist because he needs a place to vent, a place to get better tools, he needs his own MWO!!
                      Calling tomorrow and setting up his appointment and hopefully eval.

                      Well I did do something really weird though today and I can't explain it. I Hardle ever buy junk food for the kids, I pretty much am a fresh juice, veggie stir fry gal. I think the junkiest stuff I get is ice cram and hot chocolate...and fast food? Forget it...
                      But today I went to the super market and bought over 80 dollars worth of complete CRAP. I got cookies and potatoe chips and cheese it's and crappy noodle fake stuff and cones I don't even know what else.
                      My kids were freakin stunned. One of the twins threw herself at me and says, ' oh I love you! I'm so glad you're being a normal mom!!'

                      If someone wants to take a stab at that weird behavior of mine today I would love it...
                      Anyway, tired again. please forgive my incredible self centered posts the last few days. I am reading a lot here. Old stories and posts but I am just...scrambled eggs right now.
                      day 23 comming up.
                      :l
                      PS- The LGlut came today. Took 2 tonight. No cravings but very thirsty.

                        Kradle....is Matt angry about something???? any idea why he is acting out??
                        or is he just being a full blown hormonal male teen ager?
                        Does he have a crush on someone that has rejected him??
                        Bravo on Day 23...I am somewhere around that mark...
                        You may want to reach out to Mollyka on the Army thread......she is a dear and is having issues with her teenage son too.....maybe you could commiserate
                        and about the junk food......a little here and there is ok.....and it made Sedona and Madison (?) jump with glee and I am sure that was fun!

                          I need some encouragement

                          Good morning Mama,

                          You're so good to me checking in. :h As for our Matt, he has what's called hyperdermic thinking which means he simply has no ability to focus on anything other than his own immediate desire. And not for a short time but it can last months. I know that sounds like an addict or an adolescent and there are similarities of course. He also has vitually no impulse control and almost no judgement. By 13 most kids know you don't write all over your walls and bed with a sharpie because it looks ' cool' ' most kids don't steal 100.00 dollars from a parents emergency fund, keep it for 2 years and the decide to give it back one day out of the blue just because... Most 13 year olds don't kick holes in your walls because even though you've let him play on the computer for well over an hour, it's not long enough for him...

                          Is he angry? Sure if he doesn't get his way . If Matt's WILL is thwarted...watch out !

                          It's tempting to think Matt is just a typical teenager and without a doubt there is a lot of that going on but he is definitely ODD which is Oppositional Defiant defiant Disorder. Most kids learn from there mistakes. Matt can not. His thinking won't let him. When he lies to you, he absolutely doesnt think he is lieing. I could tell you stories ! :egad::egad:To be honest it's weird.
                          He is one of the most loving, funny kids you will ever meet. Won't leave the house without a hug and kiss from me. ,has no problem hugging me in front of his friends ( though kissing's out !) he oozes self confidence, performs in front of audiences as a singer songwriter and has a cutie pie little girl friend. But we have this weird alter ego going on....

                          It's exhausting. Anyway, it's tempting to think that's his behavior is simply a product of my drinking but really, my addiction except for some extreme fights with my husband which were awful, no question can't account for all this...

                          I really struggle with the apple from the tree philosophy but I also see nature vs nurture in all my kids too. I will definitely reach out to Moilka ?(sp?) thanks for steering me.

                          Uggg. I've carried on way too long. And you're at work with all those ....people with long nails and high heels and big hair! Or was that k9 in the Wal-Mart...
                          Hugs to you :l

                              It's all okay really.

                              I just got through reading Pingu's dilemma thread and all the responses. We are all so lucky to have each other here. I am speechless and overwhelmed by the posts.
                              Matt will come thru to the other side. I know it.

                              And you're right. I think her son is much older and some different issues,
                              Sleep well all.
                              Day 24 to morrow ...Wow . How did that happen?
