My daughter use to do this I swear almost daily (or at least it felt like that often, because the good days were few and far in-between) and I would ask "what's wrong, what happened?" and the more I asked, the more she screamed. It was maddening. After years of coping skills therapy, she could sometimes use her words (eventually, maybe an hour into it), but I think most of the time she didn't even know what she was upset about in the first place. She is 15 now and most of the time she doesn't tell me why she was crying until days later. I just try to stay calm and provide some sort of comfort and keep her safe because she self harms. wellymom4https://www.blogger.com/profile/05720555160535580940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5441989712918579133.post-53678857880051336382012-12-05T19:51:03.710-05:002012-12-05T19:51:03.710-05:00I hope that tomorrow is a better day.
