[quote=Anonymous]Hugs, OP. Like your DS, you are a work in progress and are not perfect. I, too, have lost my temper with my DS and felt like I was becoming someone who I didn't recognize. The guilt and shame of that can wear you down. Although I'm still no where near where I want to be, I really believe that the CHADD parenting course have helped by providing strategies for dealing with DS and the behaviors that seem to be magnified with ADHD. I have also tried to use my angry (and downright "ugly") episodes as teachable moments (obviously when the situation has been diffused) to talk with DS to apologize, discuss what happened, what triggered my reaction, and what we can do together to move on and hopefully not repeat the behaviors. Good luck. [/quote]
