[QUOTE="bran155, post: 247862"] Hello and welcome. Eggshells, if I had a dollar for every time I used that word, I could pay for your evaluation!!!! LOL My daughter is 18 and I have walked on eggshells almost her entire life, all to no avail of course. I have found that no matter how much I tried to prepare my household to avoid a "tantrum" it came anyway. I don't think there is much we can do to avoid that. They find something to freak about anyway. It comes from them and not any outside annoyance. After a while (years) I gave up on the eggshells, I began to have the, "it is what it is attitude". The tantrums were still there, only I let go of the stress of trying so hard to avoid them! Welcome to the board. You will love this place. I do. I have gained so much strength from the wonderful people here. We all can really understand each other. It really makes a difference to be able to connect with others who share in a similar struggle. Hang in there. :) [/QUOTE]
