[QUOTE="Jena, post: 404074, member: 4514"] hi, welcome! great place sorry you had to find us. i also am still in my second hospitalization with my daughter for a food phobia. it isnt' easy, probably the hardest thing as a person you will ever go thru yet you will go thru it, survive and be ok. it may not feel that way right now yet remember how strong you are. what is her diagnosis, besides odd. i dont' like odd diagnosis. i never did. there's always more and shes' so young also. it must be a challenge for you. are you alone or married? does your husband/partner if you have one back you up on any discipliing in the home or anything new you try with-her? how many other kids do you have? you should add a signature to the bottom of the page so we can know a little more about you and not ask endless questions. :) i agree with-others you need to come up with a safety plan with-the doctor's family therapist etc. on how to handle those violent moments. there is even a certain hold position you can ask to be taught that will help restrain her in those moments. other than that what i've learned is structure a whole lot of it. make a weekly schedule post it on her wall and one in the kitchen. this way she always knows what's coming next, do same with-house rules so there is no confusion and she sees what's expected. it's hard raising kids like ours yet it can be done. we're all here doing it each day and venting away while we do it lol. you will be ok, she will be ok, and doing what you did remember was for her, in her best interests and the rest of your family. being a parent bites sometimes there is no better word, yet it's your strength that allowed you to make such a hard decision.
