Helping my child
Post Body

First off, thank you to everyone on here. I first started lurking in here a few months ago. I truly appreciate the sub and all who participate in the community.

My son, who is 8 years old. Recently, he started to use foul language when he gets overly stimulated. He will have his breakdowns and will scream at his teachers, students, etc. He also has become physically destructive towards property at school. When my ex-wife brought him home, he wouldn't stop hitting himself and saying things like "I'm worthless" or "I want to die". This isn't the first time this has happened and I'm pretty worried. I travel for work and sometimes I can be gone for 2-3 weeks at a time. I do my best to facetime and be with him while im in town as much as I can.

I don't really know what I'm looking for. I think I just needed to vent. He's in the process of switching medications and there are a lot of changes happening. I guess, we just roll with the punches like usual. All I want is for him to be happy and not have the burden of so much emotion. I went through a similar childhood myself. I was never diagnosed but I can relate so much with my little boy :(.

Thank you
