Sorry you're having a bad day. And so sorry to hear about your PTSD and what you've endured.
Be proud of who you are and how far you've come!
As for your son, sadly there are a lot of "all about me" people it seems. Perhaps talk to your wife and you two try to compromise on an agreement. Let go the things that will go with him (like his shoes for instance) but require he clean up after himself when it comes to things you or your wife will have to do when he leaves (like picking up garbage or cleaning the bath) Then together tell your son he is a grown man and you want to enjoy your time while he visits but you need him to do "x" during his stay. And if your wife says no, then let her do the cleaning up after him. (That's what would happen in our house if we didn't agree)
Hope your day improves!
