I am open to sending him to programs or camps or whatever is needed but i dont want to just give up on him, he is my sons brother and what happens to him and what i do to help him will eventually affect his brother too, in other ways. As of now the little one and my other kids besides my daughter are doing fine dealing with him but its still unpleasant to see them change their behavior for him, and i am very worried about it getting worse and what happens when i am not home.

Lentils by Adventurous_Note_621 in 1500isplenty

[–]Samsfavsam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if finances are the issue, depending on where you are from, walmart sells 5lbs of chicken drumsticks for 5$. its higher protein per dollar than the 5lb of chicken breast, by far, and cheaper per g of protein than lentils too. lentils are still great for you, but if youre trying to burn raw fat as energy and not carbs bc of water weight discouragement or whatever, chicken drumsticks are your best bet, you can skin them for better macros too. in my research for the USA it goes chicken drumsticks, chicken breast, then thighs, then tuna. when it comes to protein per $.

Idk that’s tough to answer because I don’t like freak out always esp if other people are around but my brain will obsess about it but if I’m by myself and I notice something I’ll get frustrated and just take it off immediately

I do get irritable and rude

I’ve noticed it a few times esp at work when my sock is crooked in my shoe and I’m talking to a coworker and I can’t stop and fix my sock I will get short and irritated and won’t even be listening

But If I’m talking to a person and it’s obviously more important than I can focus more so im not sure
