[QUOTE="lovelyboy, post: 549059, member: 8045"] She sounds exactly like my son in so many ways!!!!! All I can say is this: We started of with ODD....then the psychiatrist changed it to Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) not otherwise specified or slight Aspergers.... He has been put on antidepressants, with slight effect. The biggest "diagnosis" currently with my son is that he struggles with mood regulation and impulse control! He also has some sensory sensitivities that also contribute to poor problemsolving skills and poor planning! Oh and also causing irritation when being hugged...He might sometimes seek ferm hugs...Gets irritated by brother pushing or touching him! He struggles with auditory processing too, this can lead to many misunderstandings! You mentioned your husband did well on SSRI, and disappaired for long time....Is there any possibility that he might be bipolar? Because bipolar manifest differently in kids.....I would not throw away a possible Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and or anxiety/depression diagnosis with your daughter? I do think she could maybe greatly bennifit from therapeutic interventions! It wouldnt reflect badly on your parenting, it would just confirm genetic inherritance if both daughters have issues! :) I know this is a very confusing and tiredsome road...and very lonely, but with these great people on this forum you might find some energy and strength to carry on! Ps....does your daughter ever struggle with transition situations? For example....having tantrums, crying, irritation exct....without apparent reason, then later you realize maybe its because school is starting, or holiday is starting, exct? And does she have social anxiety or poor social skills...like messing up her relationships with friends, because she behaves or say inappropriate things? [/QUOTE]
