- Ok, I have tried...and I appear to not be succeeding. My point in joining this group was to get some insight to HELP my son. I realize that I am not personally afflicted, but I am just as invested as the parent to a struggling child. I am desperate...
- I am so hurt tonight, I've spent the last few hours just bawling. I think I'm ok and I start again...I moved myself and my children out of the family home last May, as many of you already know. We live in a tiny apartment about 15 miles away from my...
- Finally, now that my son is nearing 11, I have found a doctor who is willing to take more than 7mins to look at at, watch, and diagnose my son properly. We have had several appts with her and she finally said this last Friday that she thinks he has...
- My 10-yr-old was suspended from school yesterday because of his behaviors. He didn't even make it 2 full weeks. I was notified at the end of the day (which in and of itself angers me IMMENSELY) of the situation. I am not trying to take any...
- I realize this isn't totally the right board for this topic...but you ladies have all been so nice...I found out today that I am miscarrying.My period last month was very strange...very light and only lasted about a day and a half, which is really...
- Life with my son has been so full of ups and down lately. One minute, I feel like we're getting somewhere...the next minute, I don't know if I can take one more day.I don't know how to do this anymore. Life with my son is so stressful and is a...
- My son had his appt today with his new psychologist. I am so impressed with her. She is the FIRST doctor that we've seen who legitimately listened to my concerns without interrupting. She listened to how I feel about his previous care, asked me...
- We had an appointment today, with a child psychologist. She told me, within a few hours, that she can't believe my child hasn't been diagnosed with something along the autism spectrum yet. He has only been diagnosed with ODD so far and I have fought...
- Uugghh...I'm so frustrated today. I couldn't think of a better way to deal with my frustrations today than to vent a little on here.My 10yr old son has been diagnosed with ODD (although I disagree with the diagnosis). I belong to this group because...
- I went to my very first Alanon meeting today. Let me tell you, if I base my opinion of the program solely upon today's experience, I would never go back! I was so disgusted, that I left before it was even over. The meeting that I attended, because...
- My son is a very, very intelligent 10 yr old. He is a wonderful child, but I knew from the day I brought him home from the hospital that he was different in many ways.We started having serious issues with my son when he was around 2 and it's...
- Ok...maybe I'm dumb here...and I know this isn't quite the forum to discuss this...but can someone tell me how to start a group? I am married to an alcoholic and I find a lot of solace in this group...but I do find myself to be a bit of the odd one...
- Just need someone to vent to a bit...my friends and family are so sick and tired of hearing it. I can't say that I blame them...some days I'm sick and tired of thinking about it all.My husband is very close to 90 days sober. He's been working...
- I'm just curious how many of you wonder if your child's diagnosis is correct? I've wondered, many times, whether my son's ODD diagnosis is the right one. We are going to see a new doctor next week, to discuss options other than medications (my son...
- My ex-husband and I divorced in 2005. We had three young children at the time, a daughter who was 4 and two sons who were 3 and 2. From the time that our middle child was brought home from the hospital, I knew that he was different. I told everybody...
