meltdowns! arghhhhhh

mumof4boys772

so we went out for the day yesterday, quietish theme park and over absolutely nothing he has a meltdown! we are waiting at the log flume in this shed sort of thing and he start screaming then noticed kids were laughing at him and then he screamed shut up you ******g idiots!

I am sick of being mortified,i am sick of meltdowns,i am sick of not being able to do anything nice without it being ruined.

So today i have gone out bought a tent which i am going to black out,i have ordered some sensory stuff ect and a nice beanbag chair for him to sit on.

How do you deal with constant meltdowns? it just takes for someone to look at hime the wrong way and thats it.

Im just venting as again we went out today to the park and he ended up throwing his drink over me and screaming so i told him we were leaving and i done it.

He then had a meltdown nearly all the way home in the car and then when we got home,this bit i figured because he was hungry,hunger seems to be a trigger and belive me he doesnt get starved lol.

Its just nice to come on and let off some steam,when i talk to people i dont think they understand the gravity of what and how we live.

  • Hi, sounds like you need a break.  It must be difficult to try + meet the needs of 4 children day in day out.  Sorry if you've mentioned this but I can't remember, do you get any help from anywhere with your children?  We can all get frazzled sometimes.  In the end, though, meltdowns always have a cause(s).  Sensory?  Stress?  Different routine? etc.  It's definitely no fun for anyone. So any extra support and/or finding a way of avoiding some of the meltdowns needs to be attempted.  And, yes, I know what I'm suggesting is certainly not easy but I don't see another way to try + improve things. Smile
