[QUOTE="keista, post: 455358, member: 11965"] [B]Susie[/B], I think she takes lousy notes. I had never thought of that. I did start the parent report, I guess I should work on it some more. I do keep a daily journal of her moods as well as behaviors. I even note when she's being "normal". Of course, I really don't have an understanding of what that is anymore. [B]Insane[/B], Thanks, that made me feel better. Like I said, she ultimately works with me. I have no problems exploring things she sees in DD1. I guess I just get frustrated by this "dance" we seem to do all the time. she probably feels the same about me. [B]MWM[/B], I'm trying to get neuropsychologist for her, but I don't think it's going to happen. But then again, she's in yet another new program within her program, within her program (insurance), so we'll see. My concern for her is that her issues are subtle. With age and experience, she's learning to cope better and her public (even to me) expressions of what's going on inside are getting more limited. Sounds good, but if all the 'negatives' are internalized, and she doesn't share them, they become the norm in her mind. She can function, and function well, but it doesn't mean there's not warped thinking going on. Personally, I thought it was perfectly normal for ALL teenagers to contemplate suicide. I did, on an almost daily basis, I figured everyone else did too. How many times have we all heard about suicide stories and the ppl closest to the victim are quoted as saying "We never knew there was a problem." [B]ML[/B], thanks. I am so proud of him! But I have to resist the urge to over-praise him - he doesn't like that. [/QUOTE]
