Hope someone can help my DD is 12 and long suspected something not right. Took her to Ed psych age 5. Sensory issues.
She's become obsessed with tick-tock totally distracted not been doing homework lying
To us. Take her phone away at 6pm but steals it back and takes parental controls off.
Booked to see a psychiatrist specialist in inattentive Adhd has all of the signs. Appt is May. School agree is adhd and behaviour worsening.
My problem is the rest of the siblings. DD is 12, have DS10 and DD8. Basically she lashes out at her brother. And it's increasing. Last 4 days has hurt him. She gets angry or is told off or pulled up on something or stressed or anxious eg meeting people. And hurts him. Eg sharply elbows, jumps on him lying on the bed and winds him, hits him hard.
We've just got to a hotel and when unpacking I was telling her to keep calm and I turned around and she's hurt him. He doesn't retaliate.
I don't know what to do. Me and her dad keep talking to her, take phone away. Husband just lost the plot and said she won't come on holiday with us again. Worried I'm not protecting my son.
She never used to be like this. Started periods 4 m ago. Goes to bed at 930. Has healthy diet. Does dance and gym 4 times a week. Takes vitamins to help focus.
What else works ? Any help. Thanks
