NativeJax, there are a few things that come along in life that we have no control over.  Keep in mind what others have said here - when one door closes, another one opens. 

There is also a lot of help/programs out for your son as well.  You sound like a loving Mom and the good Lord will be right there with you every step.

I did a little research on support groups in FL.

Meet-Up.com has various support groups in South Fl.

http://www.meetup.com/Support-Groups-South-Florida/

Psychology Today has a list of rsources by state, town, etc.  Since these are therapy groups there is probably a cost involved.

https://groups.psychologytoday.com/rms/state/Florida.html

Baptist Health in South Fl has a list of support groups.

https://baptisthealth.net/en/education-events/community-programs/pages/support-groups.aspx

I just Googled "Florida support groups" to see what came up, but you can Google your town to get more specific information.  

Hugs and best of luck to you.

I'm so sorry you are having a tough time.  Hope things improve soon.  I'm glad you are receiving lots of good advice.  Best of luck to you and your son.

I am so grateful for all of these wonderful suggestions. I am in Northeast Florida and there is a baptist health here so this weekend when I have some free time I will be researching a lot of the information y'all provided.

I managed to make it thru my 12 hour day at work but start my insurance class early tomorrow I am looking forward to shifting my focus off work for a few days.

Today was much better than yesterday:-) Praise the Lord!

The only thing I can think of is to solve one problem at a time or at least make it a little better. When you think about all of them at one time it is overwhelming. I would write down the possibilities on paper and when the times comes to make a decision refer to your list. Your plate is full. Just do your best. Maybe you will get a bit of luck.

You gave excellent advice.

[YorkieonmyPillow]

Everyone here has given such wonderful advice!

Take some comfort in knowing that you are cared about.

 Those are tough situations that you cannot solve simultaneously (or not at all).

 Do something nice for yourself every day - something comforting that will recharge your batteries.

  Try not to worry! Everything will work out, all in due time.

You have received so much excellent advice. My heart aches for you. I understand exactly how you fee. Too much worry and you can't even breathe.

If you can possibly begin thanking God for your new job that you will have, the help your son will get, your father's help...... In advance. I believe this makes a difference. Pray as if it is done and thank God. This is a different perspective than begging for help.

((((Hugs)))) to you.

You do have a lot going on.  My heart goes out to you and I will say a prayer for you. 

The previous posters had some great input on your circumstances I hope you will just believe whatever happens will be what's going to be best for you even though it may not

seem like it . Take care❣
