[QUOTE="sweetiegirlz, post: 91245, member: 4140"] Midwest, It's been awhile since her last diagnosis. She was 7. At the time she was seeing a clinical person and not an MD. Her new appointment is on Halloween with a Child Psychiatrist. Her grandmother (my side) has a myriad of undiagnosed mental stuff going on. Her father was an alcoholic and even though she wasn't, she was a "dry" drunk who was bizarrely and severely abusive to me. Mood disorder would probably describe my mother pretty well. Her grandfather on her dad's side is an alcoholic. Her father is more than likely anxiety ridden for he is completely anal and also changes moods during high stress or interruption of his routine. difficult child's moods resemble a "snowball" when she gets "rollin'" at some point everyone must jump out of the way! I hate to say that it got to this point. I feel guilt all the time for inconsistencies in my parenting. I don't write here to get sympathy for myself, I am really trying to change my way of dealing with difficult child. I love the great advice that I do get here. Re: Me slapping her, (usually her leg) not her face or humiliating her. It is usually after 1002 buttons have been pushed of mine. I am only just recently learning how to control my voice, my words and my actions where I can help and not hinder the situation. Sometimes I fail. Alot of times I fail. difficult child currently is not on any medications. I wish I would've pursued this awhile back (years ago) but in my mind, kids who took medications were zombies. [/QUOTE]
