Hi Everyone!
This is the first time that I have used this site.
I need help and I am hoping that someone can give me some advice.
I have been round in circles trying to get my son help with his anger.
He is now threatening to take his own life, screams, shouts and bangs things. He has similar problems at school. I have tried new approaches and stratergies and nothing seems to work. I Am
at the end of my tether. I feel that I am loosing my son and I am worried that he will hurt himself or someone else. Can anyone give me some advice please.
Kind Regards
Debbie
I have to agree with Abbi about the sign to say this person as autism. When my son as an outburst on the way to school parents and children stare and look in disgust as though he is just a naughty boy, when in fact he is frustrated or just having a bad day.
I saw the consultant the other day and she said there is nothing more they can do, although I managed to get some melatonin which is helping with night time sleeping as that was becoming a real issue.
I worry about the anger as the other day he marked his sisters face and arm with something although he wont say what it was, all I heard was her screaming. He is happy on his own, doing his own thing and one to one.
We have been told that the anger does get better as the child gets older because they can control their day to day routine themselves. I have to say I am dreading the next school holiday and how he will be. I was also told to get him to do star jumps as this helps the brain, he did try it as part of a game we played and it did work but I am sure he knew it was all part of what the consultant told me.
I have tried everything for my son to the point of his own sensory area but when he is stressed and angry it doesn't matter what he as he hates everyone and he doesn't care who he hurts, its quite scary really and I worry about what he could be capable of.
