[QUOTE="robinm1922, post: 243582, member: 6423"] Hello, My difficult child is 15 almost 16 one of her many problems are her cycles (I am sure you know what I mean) are not regular. She has had cycles since she was almost 13 and they have yet to be real regular. I would have to say every other month her cycle is on time and the other months it is late by any where from 1 to 3 weeks, assuming she doesn't skip it all together. Of course the biggest problem is the PMS that comes along with the cycle. On a normal month is is "doable" on a delayed month it is close to unbearable. This happens to be an unbearable month! We have a new psychiatrist appointment tonight (long overdue!) and this is something I am going to mention. I am wondering if birth control pills would help, I know she is not active and I don't think she has an interest in becoming active at this point (fingers crossed!). I have to do something she was more than just a little angry last night, she was almost scary she did tell me later after she became more human, that she felt like she could have easily hurt someone. She said she wouldn't have but she could see how people could become violent and how little it would take for it to happen. Is asking her regular doctor to put her on birth control asking for trouble? Part of me is thinking if she is going to be active she is going to be active without them, I don't know what to do. I know something has to give! Of course there is the concern that she is having problems at such a young age. I have made a long list of concerns for her new psychiatrist and I am so looking forward to the appointment tonight. The time has come to try some medications for ADD/ADHD or so I hope. If we don't do something now then this school year is a complete loss! Advice? Feedback? Thanks, Robin [/QUOTE]
