[QUOTE="weaselqt, post: 67978, member: 3989"] I'm taking him to a new counselor soon (getting it worked out) but we are close to Louisiana State University Health Science center (LSUHSC) in Shreveport. I've seen commercials about studies on teens that are ADHD or BiPolar or Both - but have never checked into them. Kinda weird - my sis-in-law works at a prison (social worker) and today she told me that she would rather work with 5 schizophrenics than one bipolar anyday. She thinks we need to get my difficult child in sooner and pressure the psyc. Problem about trying new ones is that none of them that my insurance covers are taking new patients. I wonder if I can just walk in to LSUHSC in Shreveport? Hmmmmm - maybe referral from pediatrician? Thanks for everyone's input - I guess I'm just now realizing I'm not handling as well as I should have - not even close - hard cookie to bite. I do have to say that a mom of a difficult child who is 10 at my school is going through tough time right now. She told me she thought that I (ME!!!) was very patient with her son in class and how she appreciated how I dealt with him and how non of the teachers could deal with him, etc., etc. Honestly - I'm shocked because that child grates my nerves too - but he TOTALLY reminds me of my own precious difficult child!!! The sp. ed. teacher told me I had good patience with him - but I certainly don't feel that way. So, now I look at my parenting and feel I'm treating someone else's difficult child better than my own??? Am I??? I jsut don't understand and I do feel down about it. I don't know. Anyway - sorry to make all of this so long - I'm just so overwhelmed at the moment!! {{sigh}} [/QUOTE]
