[quote=Anonymous]I have a 17-year-old daughter with ADHD (autism ruled out at one neuropsych but we've considered having her reevaluated), and there are parts of your post that I had to reread a few times to make sure I hadn't written them in my sleep. We've tried everything - 10 different meds in different dosages and formulations, various modalities of therapy we've spent thousands of dollars on, etc. Some of this has helped in that the meltdowns are shorter and she sometimes apologizes afterwards, but her behavior is still so far outside the bounds of acceptable and progress has been so incremental and inconsistent that it still feels like a constant crisis. I think better sleep and eating habits would help, but she angrily rebuffs all efforts to change anything. Anyway, I am sorry you're going through this. It's really tough. The responses are helping me too.[/quote]
