[QUOTE="jencita, post: 50005, member: 3803"] I am new to this site. I feel very alone. I have a 14 year old son who has literally destroyed our family life. (I have 7 kids ages 5 - 21) My 14 year old has been a challenge since he was 3. When he was 9 he was diagnosed with tourettes syndrome, ADHD, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Depression. Although he has never been officially diagnosed with ODD, I know he has it. He has never been able to listen and follow rules. I am so afraid he now has CD. The last month we have been called from the school almost everyday. He has had plenty of detentions, ASR's, Saturday school, and now he is suspended for 2 days. The school recommends that we homeschool him. (I think they just want him out of the school). It looks like he won't even pass the year. We are in a constant battle everyday. He is just not a nice person. My younger children are becoming affected. We can never do anything or go anywhere. I have lost all friends and family because of his meaness. Does anyone have any suggestions. He was on Strattera and Prozac for 4 years but I recently had to pull him off his medications because I couldn't get the doctors office to call me back for refills. The medicine never seemed to work. He also had years of counseling which only seem to make him worse. Help [/QUOTE]
