damp syndrome-tantrum

blast

hello I am new to the site.

My daughter had been diagnosed with Damp syndrome last year. I am not sure of the link with ASD exactly, something to do with pervasive or perceptual. i never received a lot of explanation from the doctor, so i mainly dealt with the attention side only.

However my daughter can have sometimes spectacular meltdowns (chocolate is a killer on that matter) that i don t know how to stop. I was wondering if there are some methods anyone could recommend or website to look at.

thank you

Hanna

  • hi blast - thanks for explaining.   Going to try + suggest a few things, even tho I don't know about d.a.m.p. syndrome!   Just a thought - is it poss she's getting a bit hyper with the dark chocolate because it's stronger than average choc?  How is she if she has milk choc for example?   Also is there anything that happens after she's eaten the dark choc that might set off a tantrum regardless of whether she'd eaten the choc or not?  Just another thought!  My son can get upset if he thinks someone has been unfair to him.  To be fair, he's often right.  So, have some people been unfair to her?  If so, can anything be done about that so it doesn't re-occur?  bw
