Fly away!
Saw therapist today. difficult child completely denies any anxiety or panic attacks with her. Yet, when I ask her why she isn't working on coping skills in therapy, she says she doesn't know. She's playing us.
I told therapist about difficult child telling psychiatrist that she has Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD). therapist's eyebrows shot up.
therapist had gone over the criteria of all of the personality disorders with difficult child to see what difficult child thought she met with the criteria. Some of them she was right, some she denied and she so fits them, and others she said she fits and she doesn't at all.
Then.....
Are you ready?
difficult child told therapist she missed one.
I think I've completely lost it because I can't stop laughing about that.
difficult child told therapist she missed Schizotypal. OMG. (by the way, Obsessive Compulsive Personality Disorder (OCPD) is the one difficult child does NOT fit.)
Bottom line is difficult child meets the criteria for 7 - yes, 7 - personality disorders. I've decided I'm not calling it Mixed PD; I'm calling EFPD (every freaking personality disorder).
therapist said difficult child is the most difficult patient she has ever had, and that she loves her, but she feels like she isn't making any progress with her. We both agree that difficult child needs to be in an Residential Treatment Center (RTC) and she's going to see what she can do to make that happen.
Oh...and difficult child wrote in her journal that she takes to therapist every week that she wishes her entire family was dead. Yeah. therapist is going to be using that as leverage to try to get her into an Residential Treatment Center (RTC).
Me? I'm skipping through my meadow....
