[QUOTE="Josie, post: 405500, member: 1792"] I think it can be biochemical. B used to be this way but isn't any more. She is on medications and we are doing some alternative methods, so I can't be sure what fixed it. When she was this way, there wasn't much we could do. She would be sensitive and storm off to her room where she did something that made the whole house shake. We were afraid she was going to hurt herself so if it happened more than once, we would open her door and watch her. That would make her stop that part of it, but we couldn't reason with her about how she was over reacting at all or that we didn't mean it the way she took it. Her insult was stuck in her head and that was it. We just had to let her get over it. After a certain amount of time in her room being unhappy, we could go in and talk her out of her mood. I'm sure some would say we were enabling her but we had to do what we did to make things right between us. Even if that was the wrong thing to do (and I am not convinced that it was), it didn't make her keep acting that way. Now, many medical interventions later, she doesn't have even a trace of that behaviour, at least for the last few years. I can't be sure it won't come back. [/QUOTE]
