Hi! I am new to the group

I don't even know where to start... I am a single mom with a teenage son and a daughter in college. My dear son is my biggest challenge and I about at my wits end again. We have struggled for many years with this ADHD and Bipolar. Things seemed to be going really well for the last year. Now since school started I feel like I'm back in the midst of a nightmare. I can't get him to listen or go to school. Every morning/night is a battle. I don't even want to go home anymore. He's almost 14 and in 8th grade. He's smart but lazy. Will promise you anything.everything and never follow through with it. He has a mouth on him that I would have never dreamed of! It's a battle that I can't win with him. He stays at it until I break. Now I can hold my own, but after 3-4 hours, I wear down out of shear exhaustion. Anyway, I'm here for support and ideas. I absolutely NEED the encouragement. I feel like I have tried everything, but I'm still open to ideas. He's going to have me in the looney bin before long. (What a nice vacation that could be... lol) Thanks for listening.
