3-yr-old nail biting

I was surprised how well this worked so relatively quickly. Thank you. I was wondering if I could get assistance with another symptom she has regarding her mood after sleep. She wakes up from naps in a very foul mood. Thoughts?

At the time, one year ago, the only thing we thought we needed to treat was the non-stop nail biting. It did stop. More recently, the last couple of months, she has grand mood swings, mostly with her parents, she gets along well with other children and is very social. She eats very healthy and gets plenty of fresh air. She turns on a dime, I know some of this is typical for a four-year-old, but hers seems to be getting worse. She also wakes up in a very bad mood from naps. Hope this information is adequate.

Unfortunately we are not having the same results this time around. Her tantrums are epic and appear out of nowhere daily. She seems out of control and so angry. We are patient, to a point, with boundaries as well, so while we are not perfect, this does not appear to be environmental but rather internal for her. Also, one month ago, she suddenly became fearful at her swim class, which was new for her. Thank you for your help.

Tantrums include yelling, throwing things, hitting, criticizing, name calling, kicking.
Comes on when something is done her way, or randomly, or upon waking from naps.
Usually needs to run it's course.
Nothing significant changed to bring this on three months ago.

1. She is not consolable. You walk away she comes after you. You stay and remain calm, she butts up against you screaming or taunting. You are firm she cries and remains angry...

2. She does not describe pain.

3. She has recently become afraid of going down the drain in the swimming pool. She is refusing to let go of her instructor's body during class. Although she will play in the small 'kitty pool' where her feet will touch just fine.

4. One and a half years ago she witnessed her father fall of the arm of the couch while putting the star on the Christmas tree. He got hurt. Every once in while she will bring up that she does not want her dad to put the start on the Christmas tree again.

5. She does not watch tv (other than a show called Caillou every couple of months) but at times with cousins or someone else if they have a Disney movie on she gets very frightened by cartoons or anything she perceives as scary. Other movie themes such as animals that don't have homes etc. Dragons are scary to her somewhat as well.

6. She role plays things betweens friends. She's not overly interested in toys but rather making forts or going on imaginary boat rides or getting everyone in the house to play babies and mommies and daddies. She loves to role play. She pretends to go to the market etc. When drawing, she draws circles a lot. They represent anything she wants to play at the time. She also loves books, many kinds as long as they are not scary and animals aren't lost or scared.

7. She does not describe dreams or nightmares to us even when asked.

8. She is very social and plays well with other children, defends herself when needed or others close to her. Her voice is loud in general. She negotiates games well with others.

9. She is fairly comfortable around adults and lately has begun telling strangers that she is four years old now. She bonds very well with family members and gets very sad when they fly back home.

10. In addition to answer 6, she likes listening to music and dancing. She's very physical, likes climbing, swinging, challenging her body, getting muddy. (She sometimes still eats a little sand and dirt).

11. She was very verbal at an early age as well as independent. She was potty trained and dressing herself at 20 months. She is perceptive. She once told me a friend of mine who had a terminal illness smelled differently.

12. She is in preschool and enjoys it there and jokes around with friends.

13. She is asking a lot of questions about how old people are or if they are old.

14. Her father is quite humorous and makes her laugh quite a bit. Physical comedy or silly voices make her laugh. Sometimes when we leave, go to work she cries.

15. She doesn't like having her hair combed or washed. She doesn't like taking naps.

16. She plays with her dolls or make things for her wooden farm animals.

17. If people violate her physical boundaries (hug her even if she pulled away) she remains wary of them.

1. She sleeps on her back mostly, sometimes her front.

2. No

3. Occasional talking in her sleep.

4. Wakes up from naps in a funk. Appears dazed and does not want to engage, gets very irritable. in the morning when she wakes up she gets focused on keeping her little brother from her mother. (jealous and territorial)

5.6. She loves cold drinks, though we try to give her cool at most. She loves Kombucha or almond milk. Loves raw nuts. Began eating them upon waking up every morning for past three years.
Does not like regular milk. Recently stopped liking avocado.

7. She gets irritable when she's hungry.

8. She takes her clothes off when she's hot.

9. She does not like layering in the winter.

10. If someone is banging on a drum she might say, 'Too loud!'

11. No problems.

12. She sweat most on her head when she sleeps. N smell. She also gets clammy hands and feet sometimes.

I am deeply appreciative and touched that you would take the time and interest to help.

Thank you

I wasn't able to locate the Cina in liquid, but I do have the pellets now.

Hello,

Initially it seemed to have quelled her tantrums to what is reasonable for a child of her age, but in the last few days, we are seeing an increase in her angry tantrums once again. I must admit, I gave 2 pellets before making the tincture because that is what I had on hand at the time before making the tincture.
Thank you for your time,
