[QUOTE="Loving Abbey 2, post: 157662, member: 4845"] Hi Hannah, I haven't made up my mind yet on the brain scans. I'm not sure where you live but Mass is pretty central in the North East. So here are the hospitals with psychiatrists I have heard good things about: Fransicans Hospital-does a good multidisciplinary evaluation, and Mass General-has a good team of docs for complicated issues. Boston's Children's hospital is supposed to have the best pedi docs, but I don't know anyone personally who went there for mental health. FYI, given your discription of her, I would not recommend an anti-depressant. The way you are describing MAY be bipolar and if there is any chance of bipolar, you should not use anti-depressants until the mood is stablized. Anti-depressants can increase the risk of mania and high risk behaviors associated with it. [/QUOTE]
