[QUOTE="aeditha17, post: 115632, member: 4486"] Truth be told, I guess I don't know what "normal" function is for a 5 year old! My oldest was undiagnosed with Tourettes and ADHD at that age, so he wasn't exactly average. She has trouble getting off to school due to Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) things, she screams 30% of the time I leave her at kindergarten, and she is just plain exhausting to manage when she is in one of her moods. The therapist talked with us about how Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is anxiety-driven, and I hate for her to feel like that all the time. I just don't think she is old enought to grasp what anxiety is or how to try and manage. We are going for play therapy and another doctor visit on Tuesday. I have borrowed "The Explosive Child" from our doctor so I will work on reading thatint he meantime. Maybe with the mechanisms in the book and therapy, we will be OK with-o medications. I am also going to try the gluten free diet starting this weekend. I think all 3 of my kids and my husband would benefit. B [/QUOTE]
