It's been coming for a long time. I have been having increasing problems with the symptoms of his Autism and Oppositional Defiance. He does not want to accept that these cause any problems, although they blatantly do. I am tired of being verbally attacked every time there is a disagreement. Anything to make himself feel right! There is no empathy or want to resolve. I have been tipping between anger and tears for a week. It is his house and I do not have the financial means to move immediately. I have tried talking to smooth things but that led to more arguing. I don't know how my son and I will survive the period before I can safely move out. It feels like hell on earth at the moment.
