Horrible. I forgot to mention the child is non-speaking so without those cameras, nobody would have known.

I made this post for awareness. If you suspect PANS/PANDAS, seek out a qualified medical professional who specifically understands these conditions and can guide proper evaluation and care.

I am not trying to minimize the seriousness of these types of meltdowns. Safety matters, for the person experiencing distress and for the people supporting them. Approaches rooted in restraint, punishment, or behavior suppression don’t address the source of the problem. They often increase risk and can cause far more harm.

Safety comes from helping someone move through moments of distress without adding threat, and then understanding what led to the meltdown in the first place. When we focus only on stopping a behavior, we miss the nervous system signals driving it. And without understanding the why, interventions are more likely to be reactive, inconsistent, and ineffective.

So basically, try to move from controlling behavior to understanding the conditions that create them. This will reduce frequency and lead to long term success.

Sounds easy…it’s not.

The trick is to stare into people’s souls until they feel uncomfortable…then they’ll leave you alone. lol.

Can you believe this is still common practice for autistic kids?

“Look at me when I’m talking to you” ….”ok but I won’t hear a darn thing you’re saying now”.

OR, inclusive classrooms that normalize students having different needs and giving options to all of them so they can each choose what works for them.

Just a few ideas. Share your thoughts below ⬇️

It wasn’t until I got older that I realized how much I appreciate having some down time. I feel like I rarely get that. lol.
