[QUOTE="compassion, post: 244412, member: 6393"] Welcome!!! My difficult child has mood dissorder (bipoloar I) with many of the symptoms you mentioned. I am learning it is ilness not badness. After struggling iwth all you cited for 7 months , we admitted her last week. I am in porcess of gettign SSI for her as our insurance does not cover any Residential Treatment Center (RTC). They cover acute care and out patient. I found an adolscent psychiatrist that had much experince with bipolar. My daughter is in a dual diagnois inpatient unit for substance abuse and bipolar and conduct disorder. It is close enough we can vist multiple times weekly, have family therapy weekly,etc. As far as the PCs, I think they need to see you model comassion and underatading but firmness. It is not OK to stel, be vioenet etc. Nami (National Association of Mental Ilness) has helped much. Al-anon is also a huge help. This site is great. Read about mood disorders (biploar ) in teens. My expereince is it is very difficult to stbilize in home when the behaviors have escalated to be of danger for themselves and others. We reached our bottom when she kept flying into biploar rages, thraating to kill us iswth a screwdrevier, traking drugs, runnning away mulitple times and putting herslf in grat danger. Shfe stole our cars, wrexcked them, stole thousands of dollars. Shfe is very ill. Compasson [/QUOTE]
