[QUOTE="totoro, post: 23435, member: 3155"] Timerlady- This is part of my problem... we have things setup to help her self soothe. We do not have a fenced yard but I can sit with a cup of coffee and watch them in the back. The problem is, she is so needy and clingy and BORED. Everything last for a grand total of minutes, and then she is done. If one of us is not right there with her she wont do it or it lasts minutes, if we are with her it might last a few minutes longer. We have had to break down and let them watch a bit more television, but it seems to elevate her more at times. Although she is able to leave her "head" for awhile. I can get her to go in the hottub at times, but again I have to be with her... she just wont self soothe or try. I will put her on the guest bed and say just jump, jump out the angries the sillies etc. and she will if I am right there. But the minute I walk away she stops. "I can't" She has a puppy, and a little video game, leapster... it is all so hit and miss for now. I kind of think the stabilization is a big part of this??? She will not feel the internal calm until she is stable... I try so many techniques and keep reading, and use suggestions from you guys... but not much helps yet. She is a good girl she is just so scared all the time and needy. Yet on the other hand she is the most ougoing girl I know!!! Thanks [/QUOTE]
