13-- What You Need to Know: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Support for Parenting DMDD
Does your child seem to experience emotions on overdrive—outbursts that can be shocking, irritability that feels constant, and meltdowns that leave everyone drained? Parenting a child with these challenges can feel overwhelming and isolating, but you’re not alone. In this episode, we’re shedding light on Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD), a condition that might explain these intense behaviors. Together, we’ll uncover how you can better understand your child’s struggles and begin taking steps toward calm and connection in your family.
In this episode, you will learn:
- What is DMDD? A closer look at this often-misunderstood childhood condition and how it impacts behavior and emotions.
- Spot the Signs: Learn to recognize the patterns of emotional dysregulation and meltdowns that might point to DMDD.
- Understanding the Diagnosis: We’ll talk about how DMDD is diagnosed, the criteria used, and why it’s important to differentiate it from other conditions.
- Finding Support: Discover the tools, resources, and strategies that can help your child thrive—and support you as their parent on this challenging journey.
This episode is here to provide the clarity, encouragement, and practical insights you need to better navigate your child’s emotions and behaviors. Let’s walk this path together!
