[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t think this is so far from normal. It sounds like she can control her emotions in a variety of situations. Mental illness tends to permeate every area of life. Personally, I would wake her up at 6. If she gets through the morning without a tantrum, then great. She can watch television or something. If she has a tantrum, then she misses her free time, and you don’t go into a panic. I have three kids too, and one kid flipping out 5-10 minutes before we needed to get out the door has the whole household spiraling out of control. [/quote] I disagree. Some people have an amazing capacity to hold in and mask what is going on in their heads, until it builds to a head and explodes, often over something minor that seems too small for the big reaction. That's a red flag of masking.[/quote]
