My daughter's emotional dysregulation and anger are making life extremely hard. Need advice
My daughter 10yo is diagnosed with autism with pda profile and generalized anxiety.
Life is getting harder and harder. For a while she took meds for anxiety, but then she kept refusing and the fight almost drove everyone insane. We decided to take a break. It wasn't working much anymore anyway.
A year later and quite frankly I don't know what to do anymore. She screams about anything. If anything goes wrong, if she doesn't like something, if she's angry, if she's anxious about something. She basically screams. She is always freaking out about something (I know it's the anxiety). But she also directs her anger towards her sister on a daily basis. Her sister could be doing nothing and she gets annoyed. She calls her names and puts her down.
I am at a loss.
I have an appointment with her psychiatrist this week. But what meds has truly helped your kids?
I can't live like this. I don't want her or her sister to have to live like this.
