[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 31791, member: 393"] dreamer, let me clear this up for you...the episode/dissociative state on Wednesday had no clear trigger. kt has times of highly structured activities & is encouraged to self amuse with free time. However, kt's imaginative play becomes very chaotic; she often recreates the trauma from bio home during free time. I teach kt the "safe" choices a mom makes while she plays with her dolls; especially when kt becomes frustrated & starts screaming & shaking her babies. By coming up with activities I take that trauma based anxiety out of the picture. kt becomes agitated if there is no adult in the room with her. With her lack of sense of self & sense of permanency - out of sight means no parents. kt is sitting at my feet coloring now; I've been disinvited to play dolls or color because I don't do it right. I'm content to watch her play, color & create. I'll step in & redirect if her level of agitation increases to an unhealthy level. [/QUOTE]
