Hi mom and welcome to the family!  I'm so glad you found us.

While I don't have any therapy recommendations, can I ask how old your child is?  If they're an adult, do they still live at home?  Or are you still supporting them in some ways?

Give us a little more to go on so the community can start providing peer support to you now.  What types of situations seem to bring out your child's rage?  Walk us through it a little more.

Hi Mom,

You've come to the right place.  Many parents come here drained--emotionally, physically, financially and socially.  Maybe you're in a FOG, meaning operating in a cloud of Fear, Obligation and Guilt, uncertain of what went wrong, let alone how to make things better.  We can relate to that!

Would you care to share if you're looking for support for your daughter, for you or both?  What would you say is your biggest issue right now?  Familial dysfunction, your daughter's victim attitude, threats or acts of self-harm?  People here have seen a lot of that.  Though every situation is unique, there are many recurring themes.  If you start reading under the Son/Daughter section, my guess is you will find some familiar-sounding stories.

All my best to you.
