[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 203413, member: 3419"] Jan, I know how you feel, except with-us, it was my husband who cried all the way home. I vacillated between thinking that the psychiatric hospital would give us a magic diagnosis and solution, and bracing myself for the fact that the diagnosis would probably be "mood disorder not otherwise specified." It did, in fact, turn out to be mood disorder, not otherwise specified. Bah, humbug. They did give us some validation and some strategies, but mostly, it was a way to keep difficult child calm and structured and make sure he wasn't a danger to himself. The only think my difficult child got upset about when he got out was the fact we didn't warn him. I told him I was afraid he'd refuse to go so I hoped he'd understand that. He said he did. :-) It must be way harder for you because your son is so young. Sigh. {{hugs}} [/QUOTE]
