[QUOTE="curlycallie, post: 311042, member: 7645"] Thank you for all you kind words and support. I wish I didn't have to wait until Wed. because I hate this waiting. The officer we have worked with has been very supportive so I want to honor his request to see it through. The reason difficult child isn't on medications is because she won't see a Dr. and the only drug she's interested in is Adderall. She was able to stay up longer and function on very little sleep. Both of her diagnoses were from a very poor excuse for a psch. He is retiring and I'm trying to get her an appointment. with a new one. I talked at length with another psychiatric. from Kaiser who was filling in for our previous Dr. I connected with her right away so would like her to be our difficult child's new Dr. I'm still continuing on with the Kaiser option until Wed. just in case(doubt it) difficult child does what we've asked. I figure I can always cancel appointment.'s easily. My husband is still in turmoil about all this and I keep telling him what this new psychiatric. said to me that really made sense. She said " you have to do what you think is right, and if it still ends badly you know you've done what you could." I just want her to get the help she needs before she turns 18 because I know I definitely won't be able to help her after that. That is only a yr. away so I feel pressure to act. [/QUOTE]
