Oh wow can I relate to you!
I have a 6, 4, and 2 year old. My 6 year old has ADHD and my two younger girls have SPD and the 2 year old has autism.
From what I have personally gone through, time outs only work on some kids and only for so long. I have found that when certain triggers start to get set off, I have to separate the kids. My 2 year old has a horrible temper and is easily set off. So usually, like you, I know what triggers her and can catch when I hear something setting her off. I remove her or the other child from the area and distract them with something else. I know it isn't discipline per say, however it does the trick with defusing the situation until I can determine what needs to be done as a disciplinary action.
Hope this helps, hang in there
