[QUOTE="Praecepta, post: 710706, member: 20025"] Medical science is NOT that advanced! It was not long ago that they were draining blood from people as a cure (blood letting). Psychiatry has a LONG way to go - yes in many cases they do not have any fixes for the root cause. And I've always thought it interesting that medical doctors have a philosophy of "removing parts" if they don't work... Remove tonsils, remove gall bladder, remove appendix, etc. What if we did the same on cars? Brakes not working, Remove them! Anyway I've found that psychologists (which do not typically prescribe drugs) are more inclined to deal with the cause of a problem, not just try to mask it. Read books and watch YouTube videos on the diagnosis names. Like "dyspraxia". Learn all you can. You may have the advantage of having time to watch these videos and read all about it in books. Learn the newest things. And maybe you can find something which helps. At a bare minimum, understanding something can be a BIG help. For example with ADHD, they say to teach in short sessions, then let the kid (or adult) go wild and expend their energy, then go back to the lesson. Not knowing this can be an exercise in frustration! [/QUOTE]
