[QUOTE="SunnyFlorida, post: 8237, member: 696"] in my humble opinion, I would doubt the services would put BiPolar (BP) as a diagnosis on the discharge medical forms because that would give the impression that the service did not check out the recruit thoroughly prior to enlisting. psychiatric diagnosis's are not compatible with military service unless one gets a waiver (ie ADHD as a kid, no longer on medications xxnumber of years)by putting the diagnosis depressive d/o and ODD diagnosis on difficult child's medical discharge that gives the service and the recruit a way out and everyone saves face. I think the only ones who really want diagnosis's are us mommies so we can understand, focus, and help our kiddo move forward. Regardless of what's put down, if the adult individual is not agreeable to treatment, whether it's pharmacological or not there's not much we can do. Only time will be the judge as to whether things improve/change. I have found as difficult child 1 gets older he matures. Thank goodness [img]:grin:[/img] Unless your difficult child's diagnosis is interrupting his lifestyle Robby, I don't think there will be a change anytime soon. It's probably a good idea to not agree/disagree with whatever he says. I agree with the others to keep letting husband handle everything. Whether difficult child gets fulltime employment or full time school that's a huge step in the right direction. [/QUOTE]
