I know we have worn this topic out. But Anxiety is such a big part of Battens. We are really struggling with it. And it is so hard on Nick. Would like to know what really works.
Thanks!

My son is not able to tell us what is wrong, but sometimes he has moments where he is very whiney and kind of gets mad for no reason. I have wondered if he didn't experience a bit of anxiety. I know that feeling and sometimes I felt like screaming out and just whining. I guess it is just find what works to soothe the feeling and run with it. We sometimes spend hours in the car because that is the only time he isn't upset. Our jacuzzi tub always works, but it takes quite a bit of effort to get in and out with him. Otherwise, we are on Risperdal. Since starting, it has helped. We still have moments, but he isn't as irritable all the time. Good luck!

I know this may sound weird to some, but Jenna loves, loves, loves music. If she is having a meltdown, i turn up the radio, mtv, vh1, the ipod it's almost like she gets lost in it.
