[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is the irritability mostly with you/other family members or everyone? I have a very very sweet 11 year old and she has bouts of like out of body levels of irritation with us recently, which we have been told might be hormone related and part of the puberty process. I mostly just try to emphasize acceptable behavior but also try not to take it personally. I remember finding my family so irritating at this age. Plenty of exercise, enough sleep and 1:1 time focused around her interests help some. But I do think it can be normal even if it’s painful. If it’s causing major problems outside the house and none the things you are trying are helping I do think you can tell yourself you are not “jumping straight to meds”. [/quote] op - it's mainly with the family[/quote]
