[quote=Anonymous]DS has some combo of things that make him generally difficult. He has a diagnosis but I'm not sure it's the right one and we've had 3+ years of various services where I can't tell if they've made a difference. He takes everything too far, acts impulsively and has currently been screaming for 35 minutes because I gave him a quarter with the "wrong" date on it (he wanted 2016 and I only have a 2012). I try to be patient but this is ridiculous. He's woken up his little brother and I'm fantasizing about letting him scream outside on the porch where at least my ears would get a break except that I know my neighbors would call the police. I've tried to help him calm down but when he gets like this he just has to come out of it on his own. When he does, he's completely fine and back to normal and I'm a fried mess. I cringe every 5 minutes because I think something is going to set him off. He's on Ritalin and we've done a boatload of behavioral therapy but it just continues. Thanks for letting me vent DCUM. This is my equivalent of taking some deep breaths...[/quote]
