You are really in a tough place right now.
I can't tell you it gets easier unless I define what it means to "get easier".
It gets easier to manage the symptoms after you have done it for long enough that you can go on auto-piolet most of the time.
It gets easier to deal with the doctors when you find one or 2 who really "click" and you are able to work well with them.
It gets easier when after a dozen med trials you find one that works, even just a bit.
It gets easier after you have had the time to grieve and modify the expectations you have for your child and you learn to embrace the good things that they can do.
It gets easier when you find some supportive friends who can encouraage you through the rough spots and really undertand you.
It gets easier (eventually) once you get an accurate diagnosis and you learn about what to expect.

Keep posting. It will help make it easier. Also you can email me any time if you'd just like to talk.
