[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You should have got her therapy a year ago.[/quote] That's not helpful. We spoke at length with her teachers and others in the school including the school counselor. None of them felt she needed therapy at that time. [/quote] I wouldn't have wasted time airing my dirty laundry to the school. They aren't psychologists. She has been picking at her skin for a year and a half? Do you really need the school to tell you she needs help? You have a brain, you need to be her advocate. You let it go too long. You can't change that. You even said she had extreme anxiety for one and a half years. Get the poor kid some help. What are you waiting for?[/quote] They are her teachers and yes one of them is a psychologist. It isn't airing dirty laundry it's discussing my child with the people who interact with her on a daily basis. She was picking for about 5 months altogether. It started because she was being bullied which was another issue that was addressed very careyand seriously with the school last year. She hasn't done it in a year and this year she's had a much easier class and time socially. The anxiety is, as I said, not all the time - far from it - it pops up occayand we deal with it. Obviously I'm looking into getting her into therapy at this point because I don't want it to continue. [/quote]
