Things with difficult child had been going really really well. We were up and at school, and grades were good too. For the past week or so, she has been self sabatoging getting ready on time for school. And, then she is usuing the I am too panicked to go in late. And then I cannot get her into the building. Yesterday it took both husband and myself 2 1/2 hours to get her into the building. She is just not getting up early enough to be ready on time. I don't know what to do to make her go. We get there and she starts freaking out. And if I get out of the car to force her to she super panics. I do not know if this is more manipulation or not. We see the psychiatrist tmrw. Thank goodness. We are trying to find a new therapist as she didn't like the old one. We need someone to teach her some coping skills. I have caalls in but no one has answered. And you would think that psychiatrist would be of some help. Nope!
Question for you guys. Could the concerta be causing this? We were not having this problem prior to starting it. Could it be amping her anxiety to this level? She said she likes taking it, because it helps her to focus, but if she isn't in school, then focus doesn't really matter.
