Hi all, I’ve got a 5 year old boy diagnosed about 6 months ago. He is struggling with these epic emotional tornadoes- and cannot be soothed during these episodes by my husband - only by me. it only happens at home and when he’s had bad sleep (that’s another issue)- tonight he could not stop crying and repeating my name over and over and over and no matter what my husband tried he just couldn’t help him. When I came in he calmed down. I just worry about how intense it is and what is happening when he experiences
This. It’s SO INTENSE. Anyone else out there have experience or wisdom about this particular aspect of the diagnosis? What do you do? How do you help? Is something desperately wrong? Thanks so much for reading...
