I got a lovely daughter who has adhd. As a deaf mother, I am doing my best sometime I scream and lost control of my temper when she went out of control. I dont know why i have too many problem when i already have a big problem with my hearing impair and now i have another big problem. My mother was dead when i was sixteen. My husband (father of my child) working very hard at odd hours and i feel like i dont have much of support to help me out. I am trying to finish my childrens book.Here i am writing this about me and feeling sorry for me is pathetic and it's not ever like me, god i hate it!

One of the things you need to do with kids with adhd is to learn how to disclipe at the same time you need to be calm. Is your daughter taking any medication? if she is maybe she needs a different one or higher doses. Is your daughter in school? The school could also help on how to help her. Kids with adhd are very sweet and dont know how to be calm and express themselves at times because their brains are thinking faster than their speech. Don't feel guilty.

Check out the self help picture book for ADHD children BEING IN CONTROL by Jason Alster with Amazon.com. It has easy to do exercises that help children be more relaxed and focused. There is also a CD / movie version.

As someone with adhd, I'd say that you should put her on medication. It really does help. As for support, maybe a relative could help?
