hi to everyone
i've been running around all day, getting prints done for new job. saw my first huge pysh unit out here, ok it overwhelmed me a bit to be honest. It was like somethinig out of a movie.
ok, last night was rough again with difficult child. shes been climbing the past almost 2 weeks it is now i think. I'm hesitant to increase medication again on my own, i have pyschdoc appointment on tuesday.
so i had to give up and have her come lay down iwth me in my bed, it was the only thing that would work is me holidng her close. it was 2 a.m. and i had had enough.
so, what does everynoe else do on these nights with our difficult children?
do you always have them channel it that's what i do through drawing, etc. yet now i'm realizing with work around the corner i cannot function very well on 4 hours of sleep. we may need another medication increase, yet the whole brushing, wrapping, etc breathing just isn't working now. she's too high up for that. between xmas, the play i convinced her to stay in, my job that she now knows about.
any thoughts on what others do in the wee hours of the a.m.??? i've contemplated just letting her sit on my flr while i go to bed and let her get it out and draw for hours yet i'm afraid of the behavioral affect and it becoming a pattern. i called the T, yet she hasnt' gotten back to me in a week now and missed one of our appts also. interesting...
thanks!!!!!
