Clover58 Report post Posted February 5, 2014 Hi, I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right area but I've just found this site and already things have got easier. My son and I had a really bad day yesterday and we are all hugged out after talking things through. Its nice to know for him and myself that others have good and bad days. Talking can solve so many problems. Look forward to many more posts and reading others posts Clover58 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trekster Report post Posted March 14, 2014 Welcome Clover58 After so many bad days of big meltdowns I finally went to GP and asked for some meds to help me. Currently fighting to get on the right meds to help me so I can have a calmer and happier life. I am off certain foodstuffs because they contribute to my challenging behaviour, without these products in my lifestyle I can function fairly well. I still have my up and down days and my self harm tendencies but im finding them easier to resist on the right supplements, diet/lifestyle and meds.
