The weeks leading up to it were full of extreme mood swings and anger like she's never expressed She even told me she felt that she was out of control. I know mood swings are normal but i felt it really upset her. Is this typical?
In our house- yes. DD just turned 15 and she can be a nightmare at times. In calmer moments, she's said that she knows she's being overly emotional and irrational. I know its a sample size of 1 so take it for what it is. But your experience is similar to ours.
