[QUOTE="SRL, post: 21893, member: 701"] Hi Michelle, I'm glad you found us. These are hard times in the life of a mother as most of us here know all too well. I'm a little rushed for time but if you could answer some additional questions that would help us give you better direction. 1) What's the family history look like? Any anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), bipolar, other mental health issues? 2) You mentioned she was very bright--could you give use a better idea of what that looks like in her? Is that bright as in her parents have invested a lot of time in teaching her the alphabet, colors, and numbers and she picked up on that quickly or bright as in she started reading when she was 2 or bright as in she has unusual academic-type interests for a child of her age? 3) Is there anything different about her speech--either delays or talking like an adult? 4) Does she have any oversensitivities such as to light, sound, rooms full of people, foods, etc? 5) What are her sleep patterns like? I hope we can give you some good direction. In the meantime do pick up a copy of Ross Greene's book The Explosive Child and read the thread about it at the top of this board. [/QUOTE]
