I can't help but feel demoralized as a mother right now. My older son has a lot of struggles, primarily with his health, but lately with some behavioral and emotional issues as well. I spoke with his pediatrician today and she agrees that some of his behaviors are unusual. I've been trying to call the Psychologist that I was referred to, but can't get through. She's supposed to have an open Parent Line from 11-12:50 on Wednesdays, but apparently, not today.
I feel completely helpless. It hurts my heart to watch him randomly burst into tears. He'll be inconsolable for several minutes and his only explanation is "I'm so sad." Is he depressed? Does he have an anxiety disorder? Is he bipolar? I have no idea, but I want to help him so desperately. And all I can do is leave a voicemail.
