[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 246815, member: 84"] Welcome to the board. :happy: Take some deep breaths. Parenting our special kids can be mentally, physically, and emotionally draning. If you don't agree with the treatment plan of the current psychiatrist/therapist, get a 2nd opinion. No one will fault you for it, and it's always a good idea anyway. A neuropsychologist evaluation is a good idea. Does your daughter have an IEP in place at school? If so, are they following it? Have you considered homeschooling as an option until she is more stable? If you can't/don't want to homeschool don't feel bad. Some it works for some it doesn't. No way could I have homeschooled my difficult child's when they were young. I needed the break school gave me. lol in my opinion it doesn't sound like her medications are working, or maybe aren't the right medications for her. medications can be scary. And often it can take time to find the right ones in the right doses. I put off medications until I absolutely had no other choice. You also might want to check out The Explosive Child by Ross Greene. Many parents here find it very helpful. I'm glad you found us. Also.....it's important to also take some time for yourself each day. I know it isn't always easy, but it can make all the difference. Even if it's a long hot soak in the tub or a long walk. Just some down time for yourself to relax and unwind. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
