[quote=Anonymous]My 2 year old DD has always been intense with really big emotions. Lately it has been next level. It seems like she screams the entire time she's awake. If she's not screaming she's whining. Normal toddler stuff like she asks for apple sauce, I give it to her and it's a meltdown "I said no applesauce" but dialed up to an 11 and lasts for 30 minutes. Then she calms down till the next issue. 
She won't nap, we get a nap maybe once a week. She sleeps about 11 hours at night. Her diet has become increasingly limited. We always offer a safe food with meals and she only eats that.

She isn't willful or stubborn (I read that other thread carefully) more just...so angry. All the time. I don't know what to do anymore. I try to be as compassionate as I can. I don't yell. We don't do timeouts (maybe we should?) but by the end of the day I'm just battered down.

We also have an 11 month old baby but he honestly gets barely any attention because she takes up so much of it.

Where should I start? Could this be anxiety? Is it just the age?
