[QUOTE="Jena, post: 204064, member: 4514"] Heather, You have already heard this from many others. Sheesh if anyone is the Queen of second guessing it's me. You are a great parent. Second guessing is what we do because we care so much I think with each decision that we make hoping it will impact our kids positively. it's trial and error the dr tells me all the time and everyone else here. There is no quick fix or magic answer i'm getting that now. yet your frustration sounds much like mine last night. I run into the same exact problem with mine diff is mine is younger and i can schedule the play dates and control her a bit more. do the medication thing like other's are suggesting. i can't remember all your posts, yet sounds like she doesn't like taking the medications. yet if it worked in the past and she truly requires them than i'd say begin again. someone had mentioned animals.......does she like animals? they say when their teens like that having an outside passion ie animals horses etc is good therapy for them. see with my difficult child i think depression is caused by anxiety level and social anxiety and adhd issue and sensory issues. with yours it may be the other way around. take a deep breath if you can. i'm totally feeling your frustration level right now i know it stinks and you feel helpless like no matter what you do it never seems to work. i often find once i read the responses take a deep breath and proceed forward i'm so much better. i'm sorry your so frustrated today. :) my thoughts are with you [/QUOTE]
