After suspension


After a school meeting it was agreed my oldest could go back to school last Monday. Which he did. He did pretty ok scoring in the 70s for his day. A 80 or above for the day is concerned a good day on the schools scoring system.

Thursday, however, was a referral day. What I did not foresee happening was this extra time with me during the suspension triggered his separation anxiety. This got kicked into high gear. All week he felt sick and needed to come home. Of course, I made him stay at school because he was not sick. I offered to bring him medicine. He refused.

Thursday during dealing with the referral he needed me on the phone the whole time. Normally he will call me I will get him in a state of mind to do what needs done then he will hang up. Thursday he needed the whole time the processed his referral. The behavioral lady with him noticed his separation anxiety was making it very hard for him to get through this. She said she has never had a kid need their parent on the phone the whole time.

I decided I needed to make some changes. So I added essential oils back into his routine. I have many calming blends that he chooses from. My husband made a cord bracelet for me. We put the oils on that and Friday he got in the 90s.

I'm also increasing the dosage of CBD from 300 to 500 full spectrum. We will start that in a few weeks.

Yesterday after getting the kids to school I called the school to discuss them giving my kid with food allergies chart in his file school lunch. I don't have him signed up for it, he brings his own lunch, and they want to charge me $2 something. Needless to say I was beyond upset. I took my CBD and made the call. I had to leave a message.  I braced myself for more crazy as the phone rang and it was the kid's school. This week has been nuts with Tuesday being the only good day my son had. "WTF now" I said right before answering.  It was a lady about the school lunches. She tells me we can put a block on him getting the school lunches. I just have to write a note to the school board. Thank you. Now we can maybe get these behaviors under control.  Now maybe we can get these behaviors under control!

This last week with my oldest has tested me to my limits. A little background: my oldest is 11 with anxiety, depression, and PTSD. This presents as anger. If this wasn't hard enough I have off and on depression and anxiety.  So my oldest has been refusing his CBD the last few weeks because he wants to go against what I say. P.S. once upon a time he was diagnosed with ODD. The diagnosis was only taken away because he was doing good on the CBD. It takes a lot of work for him to take the CBD these days. Sometimes he spits it out and some days he doesn't have it at all.  He has also decided he will be eating foods he is allergic to. This being milk, eggs, wheat, and peanuts. Halloween started this carp. For Halloween I normally get him candies he can have so after trick or treating he can trade. These food allergies are not life threatening, but do cause a lot of behaviors and the ODD behavior. Yay not! He didn't trade candies out and said he was going to give them t
