[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 153050, member: 3388"] Beth, When difficult child 2 is in a total "melt-down", he puts his hands around his neck, makes fake choking noises, and says he is going to kill himself. He does this to try to distract us from talking about the issues he doesn't want to discuss - The consequences for inappropriate behavior. His doctors are aware of his "going to kill myself" routine. We've learned to just ignore him. In fact, we NEVER try to talk to him when he is in a fit of rage as long as his safety isn't at stake. Interestingly enough, now that he NEVER gets a rise out of anyone when he threatens to choke himself, he does it much less often than he used to. I'm so sorry you have to go through this!!! However, it sounds like you have a really good counselor. This is a huge positive!!! Please make the appointment to see your doctor. I hope you feel better soon!!! WFEN [/QUOTE]
