[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 338189"] I really regret saying anything at all. I just want to be sure to set the record straight. I am following psychiatrists instructions. She suggested day treatment and asked us to be open to it. She also stated she wanted difficult child to begin two more medications over the weekend and let her know this week how he felt. It was my understanding that day treatment she suggested was to think about that option. we just started three medications on a one week period. I think we need to see how that works. I do not know how all of you pay for these treatments. But we do NOT have the money. Insurance, yes we have insurance. And insurance does NOT pay 100%. I DO put out my difficult child's medication at the times psychiatrist instructed. If difficult child refuses, or pretends to take it (Vyvanse) I don't know what I am suppose to do. So if I find a pill in his pocket, or under his pillow, or on the dresser...I know he did not take it. Or he may just straight out refuse. I give him the medication as instructed. If he takes it some of the time and not other times am I making him an addict? So am I suppose to not give it to him at all? What do you do then? So, for the record. I follow psychiatrists instructions. difficult child is in counseling as well as seeing psychiatrist. husband and I also go to counseling and we go seperately. So my "hideous" relationship is being worked on the best we can. And I have no more to put out. We are doing the BEST that we can. I am sitting here crying at work because of the hurtful things that were said. The times when we struggle the most and need advice...I can't even bring myself to ask what I wanted to ask, and to ask about something that happened last night at the dance, or seek others opinions about the new medication and even a medication the psychiatrist said she had a "plan for difficult child" but this was for the future. Something I never heard about. But, if I ask...I may be Hurting my son. And apparently anything that difficult child does is MY FAULT. I'm sorry. I didn't know I was the cause of all his issues. Guess I am on the wrong board. [/QUOTE]
