[QUOTE="tictoc, post: 329904, member: 7916"] Hi, I know how you feel...We are having the same type of behavior at our house today. And, waiting for the appointment is very hard. Here is one thought: When my difficult child is 'wild,' as we call it at our house, we find that exercise is very helpful. We try to run him as hard as we can. Not sure where you are or if playing outside is possible right now, but do whatever you can to provide opportunities for movement. My husband even takes difficult child swimming at the gym several evenings a week. It is an outdoor, heated pool and difficult child wears a wetsuit (It helps that it rarely freezes where we live). That tends to be very calming for difficult child. The book "The Out of Sync Child Has Fun" by Carol Stock Kranowitz is great for exercise ideas that can be done inside. It is designed for kids with sensory issues, but even if your son does not have sensory issues you probably would find some good activities for him. We get a lot of use from a a $12 package of exercise bands. Take care. [/QUOTE]
