[QUOTE="DDD, post: 116055, member: 35"] I am no expert so I hesitate to input on your post. These are some things I know from experience. You probably need to make an appointment for yourself and see if your MD thinks temporarily taking an Rx would ease your stress. There is no doubt that your stress is real and not likely to end quickly, so based on many years experience I believe you may need help to cope. I took this same advice from another CD family member this past year (even though I never dreamed I'd need to) and it made a really remarkable difference. Being gifted, been there done that, triggers some kids to creatively challenge authority "because they can". It is hard to judge if there is or is not any correlation between giftedness and GFGness. It is normal for you to wish he would just disappear for awhile so you could fall back and regroup. It's similar to being in the midst of a disaster and you keep dealing in an emergency mode with no chance to exhale. Most of us have been there. I hope you can find a way to put some space between you all. You've found a great place for support. Welcome. DDD [/QUOTE]
