[QUOTE="rolleroaster, post: 660756, member: 19277"] Hi InsaneCdn, Yes we know the reasons why she fell apart at school. There were peer issues among other things where the school did not support her. I do not want to be too specific because this is an open forum, but yes there were reasons. But no, no sexual abuse. She doesn't go off roaming the neighborhood. The playdates she has had have been with girls her age with a mom at home, no older brothers or anything like that. She is pretty much always with us besides the occasional playdate. Things definitely went downhill at school after a peer issue and she was accused of bullying when it was another student starting it. She is very sensitive when she thinks kids don't like her--and she started to feel like most kids hated her. Her behavior got worse and then less kids wanted to be around her. She has low self-esteem. Even though she is extremely bright she thinks she is dumb and will do nothing in life except live at home and do nothing. It is quite sad. Of course if you really think you are going to live with your parents your whole life, wouldn't you treat them nicely!!! And of course she has lots of good times when everything is going smoothly, she seems happy, and almost just typical. Since she is not really too awkward, when things are going well she does appear typical, maybe just a tad quirky. When things are not going well she seems, well, like there is something seriously wrong with her. Aspergers and ADHD or some mood disorder, we don't know and we really need to know. IF she actually has a mood disorder then I guess we would have to try medication? Can you have a mood disorder and not be on medications? [/QUOTE]
