Sam had an EPIC meltdown last night. He fell asleep on the way home from camp and slept for 1 1/2 hrs when we got home. When he woke up he lost it. Talking to him made it worse.
I eventually took him up to his room and told him that he could come down when he calmed down. Thus began the screaming "I can't calm down!"
My favorite?
"I can't calm down because my mind is controlling me and telling me what to do!"
I must say that his response resonates with me! I have moments like that even today! Amazing that he is able to describe it in those words. Awesome!
