[QUOTE="'Chelle, post: 272395, member: 1161"] Just adding my hi :bigsmile: Would ask many of the same questions as MWM so won't repeat. Except to agree that you should make arrangements to have your daughter evaluated. As these professionals take a while to get in to see, the sooner you set it up the better. Check with your local children's hospital if you have one, they would most likely be able to direct you where you can get this done, either a neuropsychologist or a multi-disciplinary evaluation are best. Be a squeaky wheel about getting on the cancellation list, miracles can happen. We got in to see our psychiatrist this spring a month earlier due to a cancellation, which NEVER happens with our psychiatrist as child psychs are few here LOL. Then while you're waiting for your appointment, make sure to do a parent report (check out the FAQ/Board Help forum for help in how to do this) and get all your questions & concerns written down. Makes your initial appointment MUCH easier if you're prepared a bit ahead, and you won't forget things you wanted to mention and ask. On the FAQ forum you can also find out the common abbreviations we use on the site, how to do a signature, reading suggestions. One suggestion that helped us was the book The Explosive Child, so I always recommend that one. Welcome to the site :flower:. I hope you find the advice and ear to vent to you need. [/QUOTE]
