[QUOTE="DDD, post: 288938, member: 35"] difficult child who is ADHD, AS and has (allegedly) a personality disorder lives with GFGmom this year. He is not as stable as he used to be. From what I hear thru the grapevine he displays verbal threats and feigns physical threats. GFGmom does NOT "get it". She does not oversee his medications as "he is 18 now and doesn't need to be babied", she threatens "to call the police OR (with maternal benevolence) to drive him directly to mental health intake in a neighboring county". Good Grief. When I quietly explained to her that you couldn't Baker Act someone who was neither a threat to themselves of anyone else "what to X am I suppose to do?" I suggested she take him for a ride in the car, get a coke and let him talk himself down. She did that and then made an appointment with the neuro/psychiatric who did the last evaluation. After his lst counseling session Tuesday I was told "she said that when he came in he was a 12 but by the end of the session he was a 4". What does that mean in relation to anger? Yesterday OMG, difficult child tells me "the neuro/psychiatric wants me to stop taking my stimulant medications and start biofeedback at her office two or three times a week". I said "what did you say?" difficult child said "I told her NO way. I have been hyper all my life and I can't function with-o those medications." So...here's my ignorance showing. I am aware biofeedback exists and is used. I know that it is very expensive. I know that this new neuro/psychiatric has "the machine". difficult child said "she wants my Mom to do it too". Smart idea, lol. difficult child is sliding backwards. His GFGmom is NOT getting him to our house for the bus to the college most days. I honestly think she can't handle the job of parenting (never has been able to, in my humble opinion) and it is easier to leave difficult child home sleeping as she waits for disability to roll in. :angry: Any input on the biofeedback? Voc/Rehab might pay for it. Can it be done in conjunction with stims? She (neuro/psychiatric) wants him to have EEG to see if he might be having absence seizures. Too much. Too fast. I'm pooped.
