[QUOTE="Tate1, post: 176082, member: 5590"] As for the Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) thoughts difficult child has had issues with that in the past. The Occupational Therapist (OT) says everything is good now. And for the most part it does seem that way after much therapy except for the social anxiety. I am not so sure there is not a sensory component still. However when you ask difficult child what he is afraid of he will tell you it is not safe. This is not a concept he ever got from us. As for separation difficult child will express his fears at times and tells us he is afraid we are going to die or he is going to die. He is afraid when he goes to the doctor's that "the doctor will not make me better and I will die anyway." It is always about safety and death. Always. The problem becomes when he is not able to be reassured he has told me you can't tell me we are safe because you can't always keep us safe. (emphasis on always) And then just screamed so we are not safe. Don't tell me we are safe. But again the hospital is designed to take all these components into play and discern what is contributing. As for the melatonin the neurologist needs to be consulted for any medication changes. I talked to the nurse at the hospital and she was shocked no one gave him something for sleep so I am sure (counting the hours) we will have something shortly. It has gotten much worse over the past month and we have been in a healthcare crack during that time. The psychiatrist didn't want to medicate yet, the neurologist said if we didn't get into the hospital soon he would but wanted to wait, the psychologist is on leave, the pediatrician is just trying to get someone to help us as he feels it is beyond his expertise to be playing with these medications. And here we are just watching life spiral out of control. Now that difficult child has gotten hurt an alarm has gone off. 2 days to go. [/QUOTE]
