[QUOTE="4timmy, post: 414634, member: 6553"] It is very good that he can express how he is feeling so well! My difficult child had similar issues with Risperdal in 5th grade so we took him off of it. He still has meltdowns but he was harming himself then. He can't really tell us how he is feeling when he has the meltdowns, but now we know it's sensory integration that causes his anxiety. He usually has meltdowns when he feels pressured, when things unexpected come up (transitions he's not ready for at school, etc.) He's very hard on himself, and like your difficult child, is remorseful. I'm not sure if it's appropriate to keep him out of school, however, I've kept my difficult child home at times when I think he needs a break from the stress he feels. I worry about the message that sends. My difficult child is 12 and soon to be 13 and is going through puberty too, so now he has the added stress of the Junior High years. I try as hard as I can to remain positive with him but there are days I blow it. Hang in there! [/QUOTE]
