[QUOTE="emily jane, post: 38561, member: 3682"] Hi everyone.. Thanks you for such a lovely supportive welcome.. I am in a different time Zone to you all..sorry.. [img]:frown:[/img] Well I hardly slept last night...I am having such bad palpitations and anxiety as soon as I lie down all the deep breathing in the world doesnt seem to be helping. I feel that one night when she is having a fit I am going to just keel over with a heart attack or a stroke. I have an appointment with the Dr this morning..I spoke to a councelor a few days ago who suggested I try to get her referred to a child and adolescent phsycologist. I have thought for years there was something not quite right about her anger problems. She would have tantrums lasting hours even as a young child. However, she was easier to manage then they happened less frequently. Also she was not so aggressive and..well tall. She is the same size as me now. The councelor recommended passive behaviour from me..as soon as she starts I leave the house. Which is fine until a point. Where can I go late at night? Last night I managed to remain passive for a while until her agression got so bad I had to threaten to beat the hell out of her to stop her. This stopped the aggression but she then just started on the mental abuse.When she finally decided she had tortured me enough and went to bed (by which stage I was downstairs sobbing into my dogs neck.) She then came back down to scream at me for crying as she couldnt get to sleep. I feel I am suffering from some sort of abuse? I watched my mother go through abuse for many years with my father it feels horribly similar. I live in a small town in the country. If things got so bad I had to call the gards (Irish police) I would be lucky if they turned up in a couple of hours..they are a little laid back here...To be honest I am suprised that one of the neighbours hasnt called them already. Apart from at home she is like an angel. She is good at school polite to adults (apart from a few close friends who have seen her at home in action.) Im not sure how long all that will last though. I think the halo is starting to slip. At the moment I feel I want the social services to come and take her away for a few days. I know its not ideal but I dont think I can cope one more night on my own. The thing is then she might be ok for a few hours or even a day and I think I will be ok and then it starts again... Anyway I had better go and get ready to see the Doctor. Thank again for all your replies. I am sorry for such a long post. Its so nice to get it all out without being judged.. Thanks Emily. [/QUOTE]
