[QUOTE="julieb, post: 140179, member: 4941"] Yes, I myself battle with bi-polar disorder and of course the depression that comes along with it and I also battle Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). He talks fine and is very smart for his age. Some things he does struggle with is cutting in a straight line, and he has very shaky hand writing. Not sure if that means anything or not because again he is only 4. I try to stay on a regular routine because it seems to help me stay in balance as much as it does my children, so when I came across this site I was very excited to see that other moms have these issues as well. I was begining to think I had failed him as a mom and question myself as to where did I go wrong. My daugher who is now 9 yrs old never did this and is a sweet girl. The worst thing she ever did was cut her own her own hair...LOL but she makes Honor & Merit roll ever since 1st grade when she started getting actual grades. Ethan's preschool teacher told me that he struggles with his letters and numbers, but when he is at home he knows most of them. He sometimes gets his 9&6s confused and b&ds. He has not ever been evaluated before, I for the most part always tried to chalk up his acting crazy as him being a full of energy little boy. I just thought boys are different. I also try to be very flexable with him, such as giving him warnings, explaining to him what he does wrong and how it makes people feel. I dont thinkg that spanking him for hitting is going to teach him anything because again "you hit, I hit" what do you learn from that?? I am just at a breaking point, I am afraid if i do not do something soon it will be out of control and there will be no turning back......... [/QUOTE]
