[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, as an outsider, it sounds odd when someone asks how do I manage my anger when my special needs child acts up? and she is told "medicate your child." No one is advising OP what to do for and with herself. I have a child with less challenging issues so far (ASD, but very high-functioning, and some anxiety.) I find myself with irrational anger sometimes. It's anger at my son's behavior, but its roots are in issues with my mother and my husband (who also, most likely, is on the spectrum.) I find the best thing for managing my anger is therapy (for me) and outdoor exercise and meditation. And also taking a weekend away by myself or with friends at least a couple times a year. A little distance goes a long way. [/quote] At least 2-3 people on this thread also suggested therapy and / or medication for the parent. [/quote]
