[QUOTE="steffybluebird, post: 61940, member: 3933"] Hello to all the other frustrated parents. I am a single mom with an 7 yr old who has run the gammit to find out what is causing his behavior issues. I have an IEP, he has seen a psychologist, psychiatrist, Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), neurologist, and a regular psychician. So far all we have are guesses. First the school tried to say that he had aspergers. The psychologist says it is not that nor is it ADD. He was VERY emphatic that we not allow them to put him on ADD medications. He says is overanxious disorder of childhood, mixed emotional disturbance, mood disorder not otherwise specified,and learning disorder not otherwise specified. The Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) thought it was bipolar and not much help otherwise, and the Psychiatrist put him on anti anxiety, which helped with the violent outbursts and anxiety, but now he is stealing and he pooped and peed on the carpet the other night. The psychiatrist is now recommending a mood stabilizer, but I am tapped out financially and its alot of money. I am REALLY frustrated as all I have are maybe's. The other thing is he has been kicked out of 2 daycares and is on the verge of getting kicked out of a 3rd. Not to mention my family is getting tired of dealing with him. I have read every single book out there on every mood disorder: bipolar, aspergers, add, adhd, sensory issues, you name it. Please any one have any idea what I can do? [/QUOTE]
