[QUOTE="Steely, post: 423039, member: 3301"] Hi Rose and welcome - All the other suggestions are awesome. She definitely needs a neuropsyche exam. In addition I would add as well that she get an appointment with a psychiatrist to see what types of medicines might help her get things under control. Is being a vegetarian her choice? Because her low iron could be from not eating meat. My sister was a vegetarian for 2 years, and then began eating meat and couldn't believe how much better she felt eating meat. It offers so much protein and vitamins. Have you taken her to a Dr to get a full workup? I would have her thyroid tested especially with the dry skin. When my son was your daughter age, he also was very violent. It got to the place where we had to call the police a couple of times - which is a definite wake up call to the kid - knowing she is breaking the law by threatening to kill you guys, or by destroying your property she needs to know loud and clear is not OK. Through social services you can also set up an "emergency team" that is called if she is that out of control. They will come out and aide and assist you in getting her calmed down. The third thing you can do, if she is that out of control, is take her to a hospital. This is actually the best way for both psychiatric doctors and physicians to test her entire body and mind, and it gives her a few days to be evaluated. Then a plan can be devised with you guys for her future treatment. Matt was first hospitalized when he was 6, and as hard as that was, we gained a lot from it. We made a big point that this was for his safety and ours - which is what your daughter needs to know. Is she is not safe, or you are not safe then you WILL do something about it. It truly is the most caring thing you can do for her. Hugs [/QUOTE]
