Why is my 18 year old daughter so angry all of the time? She does have high anxiety, ODD and a mild learning disability too but 95% of the time she is just angry. I worked with children of have autism and behavioural issues everyday and I go to work for the break! Every time we have a discussion she gets angry. She is reactive and can be so mean. She has a great behavioural therapist but I don’t think she realizes how severe the situation really gets. Trying to get her to do anything, holding her accountable or even to speak with kindness seems impossible. She has been like this for years and she seems to be getting worse with her imminent graduation which after 13 years of education and life being mostly the same is terrifying for her. Any help or thoughts?
