[quote=Anonymous]She does not really need a psychiatrist, but that is fine. They will evaluate and prescribe medicine. She needs a psychologist. The school should have them on staff or should be able to recommend one close to the school. Call the disabilities office. She needs to learn meditation and mindfulness to help with her racing brain. Get her a psychologist ASAP now that she is home and by the time she is off to school she should be already learning how to manage her issues. BTW, she has anxieties, clearly from you post. Those can be managed with meditation too. Don't go the SSRI route until she has tried to manage her anxieties with a psychologist. ADHD meds have a short life but might increase her anxieties. If money is not an issue, lower her course load and allow her to graduate in more time... what is the rush. [/quote]
