[QUOTE="Janna, post: 68594, member: 2737"] Hey Sue, maybe you could just come live with me for the next few months until I get it right? [img]:smile:[/img] That's not asking too much, huh? [img]:flower:[/img] I know, you ~ Janet ~ right. I know. I took the frustrations out here instead of on the therapist LOL! I was telling a friend, maybe I'm Bipolar too, because as she was asking me the "have you tried ADHD medicine" question, I saw myself stabbing her in the eye with the pen I was holding. Is that bad? [img]:smile:[/img] Anyway ~ the diaper incident, I think when I told the caseworker on Tuesday night about the ringworm incident, she freaked, because he did have one last night. Then today, the psychiatrist did approve them, but also increased the DDAVP another .2 mg (he's already on 2 mg, I dunno how much .2 is difference wise). So, he has the script now.
