[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 437011, member: 11791"] Jan - Take a deep breath. Things are really bad right now - and its really hard to put things in perspective. But you need to come up with a game plan. Path 1: Lets see if we can help you find ONE outside resource who agrees that you have a problem: - Are his problems mostly at home? or does school encounter the same behavior issues? - Does your family doctor see this as a bigger problem, or "just" a behavior issue? - Are you in a major center (don't tell us which one - you need to be discrete here - just a yes/no answer) If not, are you in a city? or more rural? Path 2: Be your own sleuth: Start researching some of the possible diagnoses, and see what YOU think fits - and then fight to have these proven or disproven... - ADHD or ADD - executive functions (not a diagnosis, but a collection of issues... often goes with ADHD and/or Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) diagnosis) - Aspergers - Autism spectrum disorder - central auditory processing disorder - developmental coordination disorder - sensory processing - learning disabilities (there are regional associations for this, and they are a good source of info) - *** OTHERS here... more ideas??? *** Keep us posted. WE are on your side - even if it feels like the whole world is against you. [/QUOTE]
