[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 437707, member: 2322"] Thanks for the responses. I think he is about as well medicated as he can be so I don't think we are going to make much progress. He just gets so flooded wiith anger or frustration it is like he goes into brain freeze. You can't reason or have a civil conversation and and his capacity to deal with disappointment or inability to delay gratification is limited. I don't think he is even aware really at some level of the things he says when he is in that mode. Then the emotional brain freeze ends. Definitely inaccessible to logic in those times. I have my doubts about therapy --I really don't know if talking about it when things are calm really helps him to process better when disappointed. We have spent so much time in therapy etc that I just don't want to go there unless it is really really worth it. [/QUOTE]
