[QUOTE="ksm, post: 667676, member: 12511"] My daughter saw her therapist yesterday, and today the therapist asked for my husband and I to come in and talk to her. J is now 17.5 and a senior in high school. I used to post on here 2 or 3 years ago... Anyway, therapist is leaning towards HPD, instead of depression and anxiety, which is what they have used for forever. After getting this info today, I returned to this forum and searched for info, and I found a post from several years ago, where it wrote that HPD sounded just like her! I didn't even remember that! I know they don't usually diagnose it as a young teen, but she had gotten progressively worse. Her biomom was diagnosed bipolar, but I am wondering if she could be HPD also? The therapist made it sound like there is no real medication to treat, and treatment is not usually successful unless the patient has had enough problems in their life to want to get better. I know daughter dies not think she had a problem. Everyone else has a problem, but not her! We are seeing a new psychologist next week, as the therapist says this is a little out of her area of training, plus the therapist has more years if school and experience. Crossing my fingers that we can survive the next 6 months. daughter wants to move out so bad... And at this point I am ready to help her pack. Ksm [/QUOTE]
