[QUOTE="Lind85, post: 317498, member: 8366"] Hi all. I am new to the forum. Hoping to find others out there like me. Reading through the posts-it is nice to know I am not alone! I have one difficult child who is 12 and is diagnosed with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), ADD and Depression. Honestly though, I sometimes don't know what is going on with him. School has been an absolute nightmare. We tried private school and he ended up bullied into depression. We tried public school and they just don't get it. He has a 504 but it does not meet his needs. He misses school due to anxiety and cried almost every day of last year. Their response was that he would get over it. The main problem is that he is "academically successful". Actually, he qualifies for the gifted program which makes it all crazier because they do not have a proper placement for him.
