I do need 1:1 support as I do have meltdowns. The biggest trigger of mine is any child being upset or crying, this really upsets me. When this happens, I can jump from any height and land on my knees to hurt myself and bite my hands and sometimes I will throw anything in my reach. I do have a tendency to run away my mum said I am very fast. You will need to be physically fit to keep up with me.
