[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 9310, member: 1550"] Poor thing. Sounds like she's a mess. Now I'm wondering, if she is brain impaired, if she has Aspergers along with a mood disorder. I have a little daughter with Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) and she has no mental health issues and she's not thinking impaired. She needs the resource room in school, but I don't think Central Auditory Processing Disorder (CAPD) would cause her not to be able to think well. After all this time, it's sad that nobody has a clear picture, but it can take years. Is she seeing private Psychiatrists or are they county mental health workers? Unfortunately, although not all private psychiatrists are good, the county mental health workers/psychiatrists tend to be the bottom of the barrell. Not all Residential Treatment Center (RTC)'s are good at diagnosing either. We've dealt with them with foster kids--they seemed to be mostly about behavioral therapy, even when a child obviously needed more than that. I hope she decides to comply with treatment and can find somebody who "gets" her. If she cycles, that's a mood disorder, but it can be co-morbid with neurological issues too. [/QUOTE]
