[QUOTE="Julie65, post: 746911, member: 23624"] Hello, I have a 16 yr old daughter. She has been under the care of a psychiatrist since 5. Mood disorder, ADHD, executive functioning problems, auditory processing. So some learning issues, mood issues, behavior issues as a result. We have had a difficult time raising her. Have a wonderful individualized school plan for her but she is still struggling to maintain emotional regulation and stay on top of tasks. It's very difficult at home, has been for years. We are all exhausted. We also have a 12yo D who has seen her share of trauma because of her big sisters behavior. We deal with some promiscuity, lying, internet addiction. She has a great heart, wants to do well but her impulses take over. She gets very verbally abusive. Lots of different therapies, medications, interventions. We are starting to look at TBS after hearing from therapist that it might be a good idea. We are running out of time to help her (before she turns 18). She is a good kid with mental health issues that get in the way of good decision making. Low self esteem,anxiety, depression don't help.We are nervous to put her in an environment that seems punitive. She doesn't want to be this way, she says that. It's kind of heartbreaking. Looking for TBS, wilderness program thoughts, recommendations. [/QUOTE]
