Hello....our difficult child has been home from school for about 3 hours now and has cycled from high to tears to anger and back to high on life SEVERAL TIMES. He went outside and rode his bike 10 ft in front of his sister's BUS, didn't even bother to look and scared 10 years off his sister's life! This isn't the first time we have had to discuss this , more like 20-25, since we moved 2 months ago. He's been nearly run down 5 times including today. Then I am the bad guy "your always mean to me", "nothings fair" because I want to keep him safe!
For those who don't know we are in the early stages of finding the right psychiatrists and psychiatric hospital to have him evaluated for Early Onset Bi-Polar (EOBP). I don't know how to deal with the highs and lows, and the anger! I'm sooo tired I don't see how he doesn't just faint from the effort!
I feel like I am cycling right along with him and might scream if he changes moods again! Which I know he will!! Dad is "watching" him at the moment. When he comes back to high after rage or tears he wants hugs and some(most) times I am not ready. I can't come back that fast! husband is such a savior, I don't know what I would do without him!
Thanks for letting me vent! Any advice on how to deal with the cycles would be appreciated! :rolleyes:
