kinda expected to have PPSD with our DD 7 after
our exciting weekend, but I never expected the severity we are now dealing with in our
2 year old!!!
DH & I need help with our 2 year old. She cries hysterically & shakes in the car the entire time, now. L She wants Daddy to stop the car, she wants me to hold her & she INSISTS I at least hold her hand.
She has a death grip on my finger, & any time the car moves in a way she isn’t expecting the shaking becomes uncontrollable & you can’t understand her through her tears.
Granted, tonight was the first time out since the accident, in a new car seat & in Daddy’s car, instead of the van……but still!
I was wondering a few things:
1. Should we take her to a psychologist?
2. How long should we let this behavior go on before we do take her to a Child Psychologist?
3. Any ideas to help her through this w/ out seeing one?
I have to drive tomorrow (which I am fine with & totally ready to do), but I can’t hold her hand while I’m driving.
We tried music, & singing & praying with her-nothing settled her AT ALL!
Ugggg.
Any child physcologists out there? How should we proceede?
