[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 58024, member: 1514"] I realize you may be feeling attacked by that theory of the social worker but what she is saying may not be far off the mark. Maybe I can "see" this because I am bipolar and an adult and maybe understand some of where she may be coming from. Is the BiPolar (BP)/Borderline (BPD) in your signature standing for bipolar and borderline? If so, that makes even more sense for them to be saying some of this is environmental. Though to be honest sticking borderline on a 10 year old is very iffy. Bipolar 2 is workable diagnosis that could well be quite environmental considering some of the issues you have mentioned on the board lately. Not that this is your fault. I have discussed this at length with my therapist and come to the conclusion that some people are born susceptible to disorders. If those people have some sort of trauma then the disorder emerges. For me it was my mom. For someone else it could be something as simple as being hospitalized for some illness. No one ever knows what could trigger it. I ended up having bipolar and borderline. The difference in me and your son is I didnt get help until I was in my late 30s. You are getting your son help much earlier. Good for you! [/QUOTE]
