[QUOTE="maril, post: 206698, member: 5937"] Welcome! Lots of good info from other posters and things to think about. Good luck at the upcoming appointment and hope you find this to be a better route than the dead end you hit with the psychologist! It may take time to pinpoint the source of your son's struggles and workable solutions to the same; in the mean time, I understand that it can be very difficult for all involved. I can relate -- my difficult child, 17, ADHD/ODD and our family have been through a lot over many years. Anyway, if need be, take advantage of the offer to contact the psychiatrist's staff while you wait for November 6 to arrive. Also, I understand that you feel uncomfortable telling husband everything, since he is out of town and you don't want to upset him, but he may have suggestions that will help and, in my humble opinion, he needs to know what is happening. Do you have a close relative or friend, who may be there to give a hand and stay with your son when you might need a time out? I say this only because, at times, all parents need time away to rethink and regroup. :winking: Hugs to you. Keep us posted. :peaceful: [/QUOTE]
