[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 380180"] Does she have an IEP? My difficult child had anger outbursts, not hitting anyone though. That was not part of ADHD with him. He was(at that time) just diagnosis'd with ODD. Then came the mood thing. Realized that whenever he was frustrated and felt not in control or overwhelmed, he lashed out verbally. In his IEP we had stated when he feels frustrated, or when the teacher realizes he was getting to that frustration breaking point he had a "cool off" pass. Either he or the teacher could say it is time to use your pass. He was then go to a predetermined room(supervised room) where he would take some time to cool off and regroup, then he would rejoin the class. Avoiding the disruption in the classroom. However, you must be careful. difficult child's are very bright. Mine decided to say he wasn't calmed down and was missing the entire class. When in fact the pass was meant for 10-15 minutes to regroup. NOT then entire class. He also started a mood stabalizer medication. Lamictal. This worked wonderful for him. But that was for him. Sometimes it takes a lot of trials to find the right medication. Most ADHD medication can cause anxiety. Most did not work with my difficult child. But my difficult child is just different. Everyone else i know had good luck with stimulants. Good luck. If you don't have an IEP, look into one. there are many accomadations you can have to help your child learn without disrupting the learning of the other students. That is a win win situation.
