I had the same question.

Kristi are you still seeing these comments?

I’d love to hear more about your experience and get more info on the cbd oil you used. TIA

I was searching for some advice in dealing with very difficult behavior with one of my children. I know without a doubt the Lord led me to your website and even to this update. Thank you. So grateful!

They have different flavors, Rebecca, so I would experiment. My son likes mint; my daughter likes cinnamon…

Anne and Jamie, I have a question. How do you get your child to take the CBD oil ? It has an awful taste and I’m afraid of running into more struggles just to get my child to take it… Thank you for your advice ?

]]> By: Anne https://simplehomeschool.net/homeschooling-an-angry-child/#comment-764120 https://simplehomeschool.net/?p=62074#comment-764120 CBD oil has made a huge difference in the life of one of my “angry” children. For the other psychiatrist-prescribed Strattera has been the key. Fortunately, one of my “angry” ones is also diagnosed with Autism, so we qualify for ABA therapy. The therapists work in-home, and the focused therapy for one child is filtering through the family for blessings all around. It’s a long, hard road, but the joy of having the anger tamed and seeing my children shine through their traumas and biological psych issues is incredible.

I wish you and yours continued joy!

Amazing posts! Best description of our family and my feelings. It IS our family — times two: TBI, anxiety, mood disorder, PANDAS, . . . Many years of sleepless nights, explosive anger, broken doors, windows, hearts, police calls, MHAs, . . . Years of searching for answers and “cures'” : Books, therapists, supplements, neuro psychiatrist and psychologist evaluations, brain mapping (confirmation) . . .

No substantial changes yet. But I have learned a few thing along this path:

1. Though it took years to get there, finally sharing my family struggles lifted a huge load off my shoulders. Shame doesn’t have such a strong hold. And when I am feeling it, a friend will not allow me to earlier in it.

2. Sharing my struggles also gave others permission to share. There is no such thing as a perfect family. We all need someone to be our real selves with.

3. No matter how long it lasts, this strobe is temporary. As a believer, I am on this earth to live as a representative of God’s kingdom. I’m on foreign ground. Hardship is part of this earthly kingdom. In eternity, this time will seem “light and momentary.” Amen!

4. I am never alone in this struggle. Since I have a Good Shepherd, I lack nothing. I need Him every moment. And He is here every moment, never leaving or forsaking. Without Him, I don’t know how I could have endured. With Him, I can move forward into each day.

5. God sees, knows and loves me and my family. He is working out his best in our lives. He created us for a purpose; will sustain, carry and rescue us in the hardships of life. (Isaiah 46:4). He can be trusted to get me through.

There is so much more! God is so faithful and good!

Thank you for sharing your heart, struggles and hope.

Ad the Holy Spirit leads I have been praying for your family. One of my sons suffers from mental health issues brought on by trauma before his adoption from Russia.

My heart is with you Allyson! I too, homeschool a daughter with PANS. Not a lot of people know what it is, so when I read this comment, I just wanted to reach out to say that your family is in my prayers ❤️
