[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 502970"] There is definitely something more than ADHD going on. It sounds like she's feeling very misunderstood and frustrated to me. You really should read the books The Explosive Child by Ross Greene and What Your Explosive Child Is Trying To Tell You by Dr. Doug Riley. I think you'll find a lot of help in them. They have helped me a LOT in understanding and communicating with difficult child 1. You also REALLY need to have her evaluated by a neuropsychologist. They assess behaviors as they relate to brain functioning. In many cases, talk therapy won't work very well, as you've said. There are also medications that, if given for an incorrect diagnosis, can make things MUCH worse. We've lived through that part with HORRIBLE results. You need to find out the WHY to her behavior. Without knowing that, you can't really fix the problem. Glad you found us but am so very sorry you needed to. Stick around and you'll find a lot of help and support here. [/QUOTE]
