Keep shoppingladies, you and the PR and if you run out of cash - buystuff anyway and take it back the next day! lol.I would love to do that, but..... She really needs to learn that material things don't always bring you to good places. When she eventually goes into custodial care (after we are gone) she won't have a lot of money, maybe $45 pocket money a month. So I need to teach her other coping mechanisms. And I need to teach myself the same coping mechanisms. lolDoes she respond well to any sort of sensory therapy? All of the coping mechanisms I've been working on teaching monkeyboy are sensory related. The best being deep pressure. That's his thing. I give him a head to toe deep pressure massage every night before bed (but only certain people are allowed to give it to him because that much body touching does run the risk of abuse) so he has a weighted blanket that he uses in my absence. When I was a teen, it was a comfy blanket, my teddy bear (which I still have ) and headphones blasting music. I still have playlists that are meant for certain things. Processing. Depression. Anger. Encouragement etc. Not sure what her "thing" is but hopefully you can tap into it and keep building on it.It's possible she would do well with some pressure. She sleeps under a comforter year round. I'm going to try some walking in the sunshine to see if exercise and sunlight will do some good. It's finally cool enough to start walking.
