Having adopted children with post trauma I feel you pain. It is such a trial, not only for them, but for you as the parent. I have to regularly work on myself so that I can have the ability to work on them.
We must remember that in many cases, the oils are adaptagenic. If the body is depleted of something the oils help regulate. If there is an overloaded, they bring the body's chemicals back down.
All oils suggested so far are excellent. May I also give a few more. Frankincense, overtime, is known to reprogram the DNA (according to a holistic dr. I spoke with). It doesn't happen all at once, but a few drops each day over a period of time really makes a difference. Frankincense really helped one of my adopted sons!!!!
Vetiver and bergamot quiet the mind and keep it from rapid cycling. All others suggested are also excellent, but you will have to experiment to see which ones help your child. Everyone's body is a little different.
When it comes with post trauma, one must release the negative memories, and trauma for a complete recovery. Oils really assist in this and move the release process quicker. I specialize in working with adopted kids in this area. I also have a wealth of resources and professionals I can refer you to if you would like them.
If you are interested in learning about this technique, please email me separately at doterramother@gmail.com.
Good luck and get some respite care so your marriage and your body can continue to thrive. And use oils on yourself to stay regulated.
Much support and prayers
Janet
--I know this information is not doterra related but it is related to this post on trauma. I have been using TRE exercises at my clinic which is great for anyone who has experienced trauma especially PTSD. IT stands for trauma release exercises. I offer classes at my clinic in Portland Oregon twice a month but you can look up online for classes near you . Type in TRE in you tube so you can learn more about this. My clients LOVE it and feel very grateful to have learned this tool to assist them in combating trauma that is stored deep within the muscles and nerves of your body. If you have any more questions feel free to conact me on my personal email massageonthego@comcast.net Good luck

I too have an adopted daughter with a history of trauma, although def not as severe as what you are describing. I will tell you what i have found to be helpful.
If there is any one who can give the girl aroma touch treatments on a regular basis that would be great. Even better if mom can do it for bonding. If the child can't tolerate lying still that long (my kids hate it) symphony of the cells is much quicker and really great also. You can buy the book that tells you how at aromatools.com.
Juniper berry is a great one for fear and especially night time fear. Although if bed wetting is a problem it MAY make it worse.
I would use the PTSD blend as mentioned and/or the peaceful child blend. Also consider the mood matrix. It's going to take some experimentation.
Last, the biggest help I have found for my daughter is Sandalwood. When I can see my daughter is ramping up to have a rage (like a meltdown) I hurry and apply it with balance on her her spine and it usually stops it in its tracks, literally. Her rages used to last for an hour and we just had to ride it out. Now, even if i don't catch it right away, it is greatly shortened in length and severity if I use the Sandalwood.
Good luck!
