S.M.
I know the frustration you're feeling. I was wondering if this has always happened or if its been new, say in the past couple years. With my daughter, she was fine, sweet couldn't have asked for a more polite, nice young lady, until she hit about 8 years old. Then she went into streaks of being out of control, it wouldn't last to long but none the less, out of control. We went to 5 different psyc doctors trying to figure out, they all told me she was a normal pre teen. When she was in 9th grade, she had a suicide attempt, come to find out she is bi-polar. Hers is hormone induced, so every month, she would go into the same rages it sounds like your son is having. I'm not saying this is whats going on with your son, but disapline of any kind may not get through to him because when he hits his rage he isn't in his own mind. Its just a thought you may not want to rule out. Being bi-polar is an illness, just like diabetes or high blood pressure, nothing to be ashamed of, but something that needs to be taken care of with medication. Once we finally figured out what was wrong with her, she was back to her happy self, the daughter I knew and loved. I just wanted to give you something to be aware of, I had no idea about anything like what was going on, I thought it was me doing something wrong or something. I'm just so sorry it took so many years to figure it out. Good luck:)Sue
