i almost posted last night, almost yet controlled myself from awakening myself even more.
difficult child was horrible last night, again. she laid in bed unable to sleep, got up fought me with-to watch t.v., do anything but lay in bed i stayed strong. she than did the usual laid there screaming my name repeatedly. that was the last sounds i heard before i fell asleep.
i cant' take this anymore. it's insane. it's been going on since birth, i wanna rip my hair out. it's like we get rid of one problem the eating disorder which i'm thrilled about and wait here comes another one worsening again.
we've tried everything. so suggestions please dont' sweet yet i'll get aggrivated lol because we've done it all. i just needed to vent. gave her natural calm last night and tryptophan. zero effect. it's scary how nothing brings this kid down.
i dont' want to let her watch tv because i just think that's bad habit forming stuff and she has tutors and doctor's next day and has to function. yet her father because she was there the night before. sat with her talked to her tried to help her get to sleep. i do not do that and have told him that.
i said if you want a dysfunctional adult keep laying with-your almost 12 year old daughter and talking to her to help her sleep. i said she'll be 12, period soon, she's gotta start growing up a bit. holding her hand at bedtime is ridiculous.
ok your manic or anxious journal than, read a book, yet do not lay there screaming my name i'm telling you every 30 seconds she does it. she has a list of coping skills she just choses to harrass me. than she yells at me at 2 a.m. i'm standing there telling her please stop screaming. so she than tells me off saying how dad helps her and i dont' and that's why she's not nasty to him lol. omg!
i have a few hours in me, that's it. easy child woke me this morning she needed something. we have therapist and than tutors. i've tried closing my door by the way it doesnt' work she screams louder. id' need a muzzle for her.
i've always said this child will put me in an early grave, i know very dramatic lol yet it's very true. she wears me down, exhausts me, depletes me.
we have psychiatric doctor in a week, and still working with-holistic doctor on junk i've been using. i've said through the years if i can just get her to sleep maybe than the daytime behaviors would be better. bipolar ppl especially need a Speech Language Pathologist (SLP) routine. set time to go to bed. she has zero. and nothing has ever worked long term to help her sleep. medications, herbals, remedies and things at home tried. it's really unbeleivable. maybe the sensory evaluation and findings will help tmrw.
thanks for listening
