[QUOTE="SheilaC, post: 6751, member: 3325"] Thanks Donna - at least with teh journal I will feel like I trying to do something to help. The more I read of this site the more I am beginning to feel like she is Bipolar. The Depakote was added after the stimulants. We had just been working with our General MD but now we are working with a Pediatric Psychiatrist. We have been working with him just two months. We don't go back until the end of the month but I don't know if we can wait that long. I got so frustrated and disappointed with myself. I am losing my patience. I am a trained parent, I have special skills and knowledge. I say that not to be bragging but to try to express how much we have tried and how far we have gone. Something all of you on this site seem to understand. I think about it and I am moved to tears. It breaks my heart. I wonder if there is hope for her. She is such a beautiful and wonderful little girl. We feel a little like failures right now and wonderful if we did her and the other children an injustice by adopting them instead of letting someone us who could have done better take them. Don't misunderstand me I don't regret adopting them. I absolutely and totally adore them but I want what is best for each of them. We want them to reach their best potential. We don't want to add to their struggles, problems. We are not PP (I think that is right Perfect Parents) but we are differently war worn Warrior Parents. Thanks for giving me a safe place to share. My family doesn't understand. And as a pastor not every place is a good place to share. [/QUOTE]
