[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 219499"] klmno, your post about services reminded me of something. My local state rep is, first of all, considered an autism expert (not that that really applies here). But, he's also the one that really pushed - for years - to get mental health parity in Ohio. He also sits on the Education Committee. I've contacted his office in the past when the SD was giving me grief over an IEP. I'll contact his office on Monday and see what they know of that can be available for help. He should be a great resource. I hope. Linda - I think you're right. While she's not spiralling down in the way she was 2 years ago when I was seeking out day treatment, she's running the show and nothing we're doing at home is working. When I left for the vet, I asked Wynter if she would empty the dishwasher while I was gone and she said she would. Later this evening, I went to reload it and it hadn't been emptied. I reminded her that I had asked her to empty it and she argued - loudly - that I did not ask her. When I insisted that I did, she goes on about how I never believe her. Of course. I'm the one that is hallucinating about asking her to do it. It's not that maybe she forgot or just didn't want to do it. I mean...how do you argue that someone didn't say what they said and keep a straight face? JLady - I see you're in Buford, GA. I lived in Marietta for a while in my mid-teens til about 21. My son was born in GA. I'm not giving up on her. I may not want to even look at her right now, but she is very intelligent, highly creative and quite capable of doing anything she sets her mind to. It's just that I can't do this anymore with what we've got. You're new and so you wouldn't know that I have a chronic illness that has escaped diagnosis for a while now and has become disabling.
