Hi guys, by the quietness here I reckon we are all in a similar boat. Christmas with Issues.

We've had an awful 10 days since being back from the US. Its been beyond horrible. I want to forget Christmas and pretend its not happening, return all the presents and give up. Hide in a hole for the next 5 days or so.....

Too bad.... its not her fault. Really, I mean its not her fault that Christmas and everything involved is over stimulating and full of sugar. Its not her fault we went overseas and came home and have to re-establish her groove. Its not her fault that its school holidays and her known routine is non existant. *groan*

Yesterday was better. I set a timer every 2 hours and did OT calming exercises. We only had one meltdown and she didn't physically attack me at all.... whew.... best day so far!!!!
