[QUOTE="Dunno, post: 713318, member: 21913"] Your not kidding, gasoline with matches is the best way to describe the word 'no' at our house. Its like, a total personality shift when she doesn't get her way. And the rage begins. Last summer wasn't particularly bad, but with middle school starting this year, yikes! To think, I thought I had a few more years... The moving out thing OMG totally describes our house. If she doesn't get her way she's moving out. Lol at 12- go figure (total absence of logic there). About two months ago when she was raging, after about an hour of hearing her (I wasn't yelling back, completely calm, and truthfully just trying to ignore it), I finally said if were so bad just go live with someone else. Lol apparently thats not the right answer- it only pissed her off more! lol go figure. I still don't get the victim thing, I mean, if she had a bad life, I could get how they'd get there, but I mean, were pretty much normal (married, were okay financially, have a house, dog, tons of kids junk) so I don't even know how she gets there on that one. So, I mean, what do you do about it? I tried two counselors thus far. The first one said its just normal behavior-hahaha what a joke. The second one said she wasn't trained to work with this-lovely. What about medications, what experiences have you guys had? Are they effective in terms of reducing the symptoms? [/QUOTE]
