The other night(Monday), husband was trying to get difficult child to eat dinner (I was not home). difficult child never eats much due to the daytrana but we try to get something into him. difficult child threw a fit, he was apparently sobbing and hysterical(I was not home) yelling and screaming that he was stupid, he hates himself, he just wants to die, etc etc.
This is NOT his baseline nor does it happen frequently. It did however really upset husband who is now finally (knock on wood and doing nekkid chicken dance)doing well. I think it was maybe due to all the stimulation of the weekend, difficult child does not do well with that.
He had a busy weekend. Saturday ran all over with husband shopping, and then stayed the night at a friends house and probably got way too little sleep. Sunday was Super Bowl--we had friends over,and then I let him stay up untill 9pm to finish his movie on Sunday night(my bad). His lights out time is usually 8:30.
I am wanting opinions. Is this something I should be concerned about? Am I playing it down or is husband playing it up? My gut is saying that husband is just finally in a place mentally and emotionally where he can realize how difficult child is not normal and does not react like other kids, but I just want to be sure.
Thanks.
