[QUOTE="worried1, post: 595923, member: 16373"] Dear Scary&sad, I just joined this site today. I have a very similar situation that I'm currently going thru. My son is 17 and he has been in and out of treatment facilities going on 3 years now. I'm honestly at my wits end!!! He had been diagonosed with adhd at age 5. he has been on all kinds of medication for it. when he turned 13 the dr diagnosed him with o.d.d. and bi-polar disorder. He then became very aggressive and constantly lying about everything under the sun! A week before my son turned 16 he tried to kill himself by swallowing a dozen of his pills and put himself in a coma for almost 2 weeks. Due to the lack of oxygen to his brain he now suffers from severe seizures. After he recooped from his coma he continued on his his bad behaviors such as larceny,weapons on school ground, falsely calling 911, stealing from stores, etc.... He just recently got out of a treatment facility in which he was in for 9 months. The only thing he walked away with leaving that place was a book full of other bad behavior kids ph #s!!! I know as a parent I should never give up on my child but I'm very tired and I really dont know what else to do with him!! I have a 9 year old daughter and its not fair to her or my husband. Sadly my son is sitting in a behavior center right now awaiting to be transferred to the state hospital... I know I typed a lot of personal info but I honestly needed to vent and I find it very therapeutic opening up to parents on this forum. God Bless [/QUOTE]
