Shandar, please don`t keep things to yourself, my grandson has lived with me since he was 18 months old, (he is 12 now). I mention this because he would get so angry with stuff he would punch walls, doors and anything in his sight, he kept coming home and smashing things up in the flat, mostly in his bedroom. I really felt for him and empathized with his moods.I would spend between 1 and 2 hours almost every night calming him. He said punching walls made him feel better (even though it hurt his knuckles). He has totally destroyed a door in the flat but I would talk to him and encourage him to tell me all about it, he once asked me how I could stay so calm when he was "kicking off", I said that I just wanted to help him and that he doesn`t have to keep it inside. I use these forums to off-load about my depression, like I have just done. So what I`m saying is keep posting. I don`t know if it helps you, but posting on here certainly helps me, good luck, Dionysius.
Thanks for this!
