[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 566570, member: 3419"] Isis, ditto and ditto. I agree, that this is actually a good alternative to bipolar when you're dealing with-little kids. Even though it is almost hopelessly vague. It's a working diagnosis so that parents can get svcs and scrips. I hear you. And this isn't the last we've heard from the Powers That Be who write the DSM. Give it another few yrs and they'll change the names again. It isn't totally about the money, per se. It's about [I]how[/I] insurance companies create their [I]own[/I] little pkgs, and what the pharmaceutical companies want to hawk. The other component is the education system, and that needs a two pronged approach--one with-lobbying the state legislature and municipalities and making sure our kids have svcs available, period, and second, that MDs can write up dxes and ltrs to send to the school admin to make them provide the svcs. Around and around we go. In regard to your son being "very sick," I guess that just means she's empathetic and saying that she sees something. Which is better than nothing. [/QUOTE]
