[QUOTE="compassion, post: 289045, member: 6393"] Thanks for all the input. I had a great session with daughter's pychcologist. We are cancelling the check card and getting cards with defined limits cannot go over (prepaid Visa). therapist says she just cant handle the other and this puts safer limits on it. She is actually doing a lot better. I dont post on this general forum much because I know most wil lnot understand that but I really felt I needed to share yesterday. Yes, she is on medications and they help but she is still manic, has a conduct disorder, and many borderline personality traits. I see her pyschclogist twice a week. She has been a huge help. We are taking tiny baby steps. She also has in home behavior analyst. She has had the same psychiatrist since Sept 08, treatment included 3.5 months inpatient program, out May 15, 2009.We also have a family therapist we see once a week. I go to AL-Anon twice a week, talk with my spnsor 3 times a week, I connenct with FA sponsor daily, I attend church weekly, I am involved in statewide service in another 12 step program. I go to NAMI monthly and am involved with a parents of disabled children's group.I daily am invloved on hChild and Adolscent Bipolar Foudation board, I am a regualr participant in the Residential Treatment Center (RTC) support group. I read these boards daily and communicate with a safe person privately. My daughter, who turned 16 April 16 does not want to be hospitalized. She really wants to be in the community. We are supporting that, one day at a time. She has made a lot of progress in coming home more, checking in with me more and she is adherent with her medications. I really try and support and respct everyone that posts here and do my part to make it a safe place to land. Some of us (life me) have kids who are severly ill and need a lot of support and understanding. Unfortunately, there is no quick,easy fix. Support though is very important. I really believe in my heart my daughter is ill, not bad. Compassion [/QUOTE]
