[QUOTE="Jena, post: 208066, member: 4514"] Hi I try to enjoy the happy moments when I can with my difficult child, the one's in which she is responding to me well, she is enjoying herself and is content with her life. "normal" I don't like to use that word, because I no longer know what that means. I don't know if anyone is "normal" :) Yet I do see your point with what you were saying. I have learned to log my difficult child's behaviors on a daily basis. This way I can track it and in time I begin to see a pattern of behaviors that are more easily recognizable. The day to day run of it, each day overlapping the other at times can make us confused..... :( To give you an example of what hypomania looks like in my home with my difficult child when we have been there............ she is very focused on projects, for long periods of time and works feverishly to finish them. cannot sleep at night is up sometimes till 4 a.m. or pull's all nighters'. is irritable and jumpy and aggressive. is ready to "throw down" at any given point regardless of how well I try to handle whatever situation. It can be over finding a sock mind you. She is slightly violent she will stomp her feet at any "no's" given, or hit a wall or slam her door, or be rough with an animal in our home, she has pushed me as well a few times. Mind you if you read up on some of these things children can also experience mixed states whereas the hyper activity can clash with levels and bouts of sadness. You have on your signature that he was diagnosis with Adhd which can often bring about sudden bursts of just that hyper actiivty in a huge way. My boyfriend's son has it. Did you ever read the explosive child, everyone here recommended it and I read it and boy did it explain alot. Also halloween is upon us. My difficult child always kicks up prior to any type of holidays, or huge events. It's as if they have no filtering process our little difficult child's. Good luck, i hope your halloween is a good one for both you and difficult child. Start loggin behaviors it helped me so much to be able to look back to each day and week and mos to grasp what i was truly seeing. :) [/QUOTE]
