[QUOTE="Josie, post: 333490, member: 1792"] Some of my daughter's diagnosis'es were mood disorder-not otherwise specified, ODD, depression, Intermittent Explosive Disorder (IED). Not bipolar. Her therapist and I thought she would end up with that, though. Putting her on the girlfriend/CF diet made her into a typical kid. It didn't just treat the symptom. Eating that food caused the problem. Even for me, the girlfriend diet got rid of my undx'ed anxiety, irritability, fatigue, brain fog, and more. I would encourage you to try it. I think you have to be very strict and not allow any restuarant food or food with traces of wheat or milk while you are trying it. After a while, if it works, you can loosen up a little and see if you have to be so strict. The first time I tried it, I didn't worry about traces of gluten and couldn't tell a difference. The next time I tried it, I was very strict and could tell by the second day that it made a difference. difficult child 1 and I were both able to stop taking Lexapro since we started this diet. difficult child doesn't even go to the therapist any more. We've been doing it almost 4 years now. [/QUOTE]
