Help with meltdowns

Hi everyone, 

Im fairly new here and have read a few of the discussions and replied to some.

My eleven year old goes through cycles with his aspergers, at the moment he is having meltdowns  left right and centre.

He gets physically aggressive, throws hinges, scares my younger children (10 and 6) hits , kicks, punches, spits, screams at us breaks things and so on. Myself and my hubby (not his dad biologically) are becoming very worn down and tired. Wfinally got his diagnosis two weeks ago after fighting for ten years. 

We no longer no what to do or try.

Basically any help or receive could bebrilliant.

Thanks

    I understand what you are saying completely, it's hard when you have to shut ur child in their room, and at the moment it's the only thing we are abhurt do for the safety of the whole household.

    You did feel li,e the worst parent and it hurts a lot to feel like you have to isolate your child from their siblings.

    I hope you have success getting a diagnosis, as I said, it took me tem years and I wouldn't wish that on anyone.  I neaRly gave up trying last year when the ed. psychologist basically told me iChat my son is the way he is because I suffered postnatal psychosis after having him!

    All I can say to you is you know your own child so don't let anyone fob you off.

    If you Would like to chat pm me.

    Let me know how it goes.
