[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 80724, member: 393"] Heather, Your difficult child & kt sound so much alike in many ways. I hate the anxiety. It makes me crazy. A meltdown out of kt ends with a PRN medication or the crisis team coming out. But it ends within a certain period of time. I agree the non-stop anxiety is harder to handle. I do my best not to feed into it. I'm almost harsh. Last night kt was convinced that she was dying because of her stitches. I asked her if we should start planning her funeral. It got very silly though - I asked kt what color casket (light blue for those who need to know). I asked her what song she'd like sung during the service (I can't remember but it was a kick - she'd like her current boyfriend N to sing it). We were giggling by that time & her fears over the itchy, healing stitches had passed. Have you tried humor with your difficult child? It really helps here. In the meantime, there's a huge cyber-shoulder here for you to lean on; a cyber-ear to listen. Take care of you - be gentle with yourself. [/QUOTE]
