Houston Astros cheer for young special needs fan
The 8-year-old, Chloe, suffers from disruptive mood dysregulation disorder.
Astros outfielder Josh Reddick joined in with a supportive tweet of his own, along with pitcher Lance McCullers Jr., who offered to leave her a ticket for the first game of the American League Division Series.
Don’t let anybody tell you to stop cheering! If they don’t like it then they can go home. ???????? https://t.co/CULgNYa3Gn

Chloe, don’t you EVER stop cheering! I would love for you to cheer us on, as LOUD as you can, during ALDS game 1 in MMP! I would be honored to leave you a ticket! @astros https://t.co/qrORuFeF9I

Chloe suffers from something called disruptive mood dysregulation disorder. According to her mother, Chloe has trouble comprehending emotions. Cheering at baseball games is a positive outlet for her.
\"Completely defeated and refused to cheer the remainder of the game (5 innings) in fear she would get in trouble by this lady again!\" Beaver wrote in the Facebook post.
Disruptive mood dysregulation disorder is found in children and adolescents. Its symptoms include angry outbursts that the child expresses verbally, or through physical aggression, according to the American Psychiatric Association.
Not much is known about DMDD, as it has been identified relatively recently, according to the National Institute of Mental Health.
The NIMH website states that DMDD \"can impair a child’s quality of life and school performance and disrupt relationships with his or her family and peers.”
