[QUOTE="SearchingForRainbows, post: 215292, member: 3388"] I'm sorry I don't have time to go into any detail at the moment but will give you a quick answer. difficult child 1 was evaluated for a week as an inpatient in a psychiatric hospital and for the following three weeks as an outpatient at the same hospital. He was then seen by a neuropsychologist. It's a long, long story!!! We went through absolute HE77 with him. While he had been evaluated prior to being hospitalized, we were given wrong or incomplete diags. Fortunately, drugs weren't mentioned to us before his hospitalization. Otherwise, I really think we would have been given the wrong ones and we would have gone through a much worse time than we did. We were just very, very lucky that difficult child 1 had an excellent child pysch while he was an inpatient. She followed him as an outpatient too. We tried to get her to see difficult child 1 once he was discharged from his day program but she only treats patients while they are hospitalized. She is the one who started him on a mood stabilizer. I'm thankful every single day that she had lots of experience dealing with kids like difficult child 1. Got to go but am thinking of you... WFEN [/QUOTE]
