[QUOTE="lordhelpme, post: 30675, member: 3382"] i am constantly second guessing but mainly cuz i have gotten so many different opinions on what difficult child has. first msw thought conduct then psychiatrist diagnosis bipolar. school thinks odd and Occupational Therapist (OT) thinks sensory is an issue where teacher and principle think not. now at new community mental health place intake evaluation thought adhd though everyone else ruled this out and msw/new therapist thought Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) based on notes but not so sure after seeing difficult child. so we will wait until apr 13 for new psychiatrist. i again had someone today(works doing home visits for infants/toddlers) say 'bipolar the adhd of the decade' meaning it is the diagnosis de jour. so as i read posts here and learn with-my own difficult child, how can you not second guess when everyone else is doing it for you?!?!?! everyone balks about you using medications who doesn't have a difficult child and the school wants you to use medications yets discounts them if not working the way/as fast they think. grr the whole system is just so screwed up and convoluted. bottom line i will do what it takes. if it means medications then so be it. if it means holistic things like massage or essential oils then it will try it. i think we all must remember that the majority of parents want what is best for their child and though we can get desperate we do what it takes.
