I have an inside kid tantrumming, stomping her feet and saying "uh uh, I ain't gonna do it." And she is wreaking havoc, activating some really old and destructive coping mechanisms.
Go away already! I haven't got time for that! ****!
She says its because I don't believe her.
She's right. I don't.

Totally understand what you are saying and where you are. I seem to be in a place much similar.
I finally took a card and envelope and wrote it on the card, what the one stomping her feet wants to be dealt with, and put it in the envelope. I wrote "stay here" on the envelope. We will open it up and talk with our counselor about it on Tuesday, right now I have other things to address. That helped a bit until my mom called. [emoji16]
This works for me. Just wanted to share that with you. [emoji4]
Now, I'll most probably have to make a card for "Mom". [emoji33]
