[quote=Anonymous]Take her back to the psychologist if you are more comfortable with a psychologist over a psychiatrist. She isn't the same child she was in grade 4. The pressures have gotten higher, the bar is set higher, the social pressure is growing, her self-worth is changing. You need to get on top of this now as these issues will only get worse over the next few years. Perfectionism can lead to all kinds of mental health problems. She probably can't talk to you about how she feels. There is too much pressure on her. Also she knows you have two special needs kids and she won't want to burden you more so she sucks it up and tries to hide how she feels, all the while dying inside. It is very hard OP to be the good kid, the easy kid, the less needy kid. [/quote]
