[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 450234, member: 6705"] We had some issues finding a neuropsychologist. Do you have a children's hospital nearby? Or a university hospital? They usually will be able to point you in the right direction. Essentially this is a team of docs that specialise in neuropsychological disorders. Abuse in early life CAN change the way a person is wired - but, if bio father had mental health issues (clearly, handed down from gma), there is a genetic history there too (and your depression - does that run in your family, or was it totally situational?). Add the two, and - KAPOW! Ugliness. My SD is bipolar AND has been abused. And we are going through 9 kinds of Hades. But - she was older than Beanz when the sexual abuse happened. I know what it did to O... And as it turns out, she's NOT DID. There are not multiples, it's whether she gets her way. Now I've [I]heard[/I] but cannot quote where, that hearing voices, in bipolar kids, can result from more than normal brain activity. I could be wrong - but it's something to consider. Out of curiosity... Has she ever tried to talk TO the voices? That's not a professional opinion - that's a wandering wonder. Also, FWIW? None of our pets like O. The cats learned to hide and hide WELL, and the dog runs and barks loudly. She mostly stayed away from him though. [/QUOTE]
