[QUOTE="TerryJ2, post: 632317, member: 3419"] {{hugs}} LoonyAlana. We just got back from the psychiatrist. My son is 17 and is taking Desmopressin. It really helps with-bladder control. We got very worried when the 1 pill he was taking at night no longer worked, but the psychiatrist said take two ... and so far, it works. He said that most (99.9%) people outgrow it. He wasn't sure if it was muscular, nervous system or what, but he said it can spontaneously just happen. That made my difficult child happy. Who wants to go through life like that? I agree with-the others that your difficult child has anxiety issues, but I see a bigger picture with-the bossiness and the little professor syndrome--I see him on the autism spectrum, possibly Asperger's. Keep an open mind as you take this journey. Doctors will disagree with one another. I hope you can work out things with your husband. I'm sending boatloads of patience and strength while you await diagnosis appointments. The waiting is the worst part. And then you wait for the results. And those lead to more testing in other areas. Sigh. [/QUOTE]
