[QUOTE="dirtmama, post: 351481, member: 8909"] ok, we are next in line on waiting list to get into see a new doctor. neuropsychologist. it's getting to be more and more of an emergency. difficult child seems to have a grip at school unless the staff just writes his behaviors off to adhd?! i emailed his teacher this morning to ask if he has any manic behaviors at school. of course i didn't say manic, i just wrote a list of things, ya know. she probably thinks i'm nuts. i don't understand how it can be night and day---home and at school. i remember when he was in kindergarten and i would pick him up from school and he'd freak as soon as he got in the car. i'd say "did you save that melt down just for me?!" now it's only magnified 100x. i live in a very rural place. the mental health system here is almost non existent. difficult child has a "behavior" plan (mostly for his stealing habit) in his class and a minimal 504. no iep because he performs at or above grade level. difficult child has a pretty good therapist that he sees every 2 weeks. how can therapy even work if difficult child is in a manic state? this limbo is killing me. it's like nobody gets how serious this is, and my husband keeps working late...i think to avoid the chaos. i wish i could! Thanks for all the good thoughts. i just wish i wasn't so emotionally involved and just let his behaviors bounce off of me. but if he's not whining and screaming and slamming doors then he's nagging me for something that's out of the question. or laughing hysterically with- crazy eyes. everyday i can't wait to see him after school and think i'm going to use a new approach. failure after failure.uhck...
