[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know if your child has the same diagnoses as mine so this may not be helpful but 5/6 was the absolute hardest. My child is behaviorally unrecognizable now at 9 (with meds! But I think time helped even more). I hope there’s at least a chance that things improve so you have something to hope for.

My child only went for pie today though. They struggle even being around the huge plates of gloppy food. Food is still so hard. [/quote]

NP here. Our child is almost 7 and we are on the brink of hell. ADHD and likely ASD, we will know soon. It feels like everyone has abandoned us; his psychiatrist just shrugs her shoulders why meds aren’t working, his behavioral specialist just quit on us. Our family doesn’t want to be around us. We are just in hell and desperate for help. Crisis center does nothing, police come over and just watch him beat up on us. Hospital tells us we shouldn’t admit a child this young. I would love to hear how things have shaken out for those who have seen some improvement. [/quote]

Lived in hell til she was 11 and we got her in residential treatment.

Then another year of medium hell when she got out.

Now in a special ed school and doing much better. Age/maturity, plus meds management, plus therapy, plus residential, plus good school program. ALL of that or we would still be in hell. And it took years to get where we are. So, so much sympathy. [/quote]
