[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 115509, member: 393"] kt cannot stop a game unless her family or whatever in her game is in a good place; safe, well fed & such. We have begun limiting kt's computer time. In home therapist has been helping kt to plan ahead (when she starts her game time) & remember that the family has to be in a safe, happy place by the end of computer time. kt actually has a notebook next to her computer where she works this out (husband knows the game) & plans out things before she starts. We allow shut down time on occasion. Saying that, this has been successful at least 80% of the time. And this has taken months to implement/utilize. I'm quiet in the midst of a rage. kt knows that if she steps over a line that the crisis team, then 911 is called. I know that kt's wall is up when she is raging; she cannot hear one thing I'm saying. I redirect physical actions. I rock (sensory movements by me seem to help), gently touch her when she allows to help her stay connected or reconnect, if you will & wait it out. The aftermath is the time to work out different coping skills & consequences. Good luck [/QUOTE]
