DD is 7 and has low functioning autism and is currently very aggressive and clingy. I had less than 3 hours sleep last night and everytime I am hit or scratched or shoved today, I have an urge to hit back. (I won't act on it, don't worry.) I have no life outside the home and so I would like to at least have a nice home but it gets trashed every day. The sofa is broken from her clambering on it, the walls are grubby with handprints, she's just drawn on the one nice piece of furniture I own with felt tip, she pulls the books off the shelves and spits against the window. I am sick of it all and so tired I could die. I took her to a shop today and she happily trotted in while I paused to get a trolley from the stack by the door. I had a sudden urge to get back in my car and drive away. AIBU to cry?
