[quote=Anonymous]Just a note to say thank you for this post. We have a 8 year old DD who exhibits extreme frustration intolerance and emotional dysregulation at home. I often feel at my wits end for how to help. I’m very calm by nature and try modeling and channeling that as much as I can —just operating in a lower key so I’m not flashing back at her. I’m not sure it does a whole lot of good in terms of helping her lasso her feelings. At school her teachers were pretty shocked to hear about our struggles with temper flares and physical outbursts. She keeps it together during the day (and she’s an excellent student and engaged participant) and talks of trying to get someone to pay or hurt as revenge for her feelings. She hits me a lot less than she did a couple years ago but it occasionally will happen. ADD has not been formally diagnosed but everything I’ve read about it fits. I’d love advice on where to start with that and OT. She’s about to start talking to a counselor at school but here we are at the end of the school year. I’d love to keep this going. Thanks everyone for the community. [/quote]
