[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 297915"] Another book to look at is Stop Walking on Eggshells (authors Mason and Kreger). This one might be very beneficial. Does the Dr. know about her cutting herself? It is a red flag for Borderline Personality Disorder. She really needs to be on medication and in therapy. Is she on medication and if so, is she taking it regularly? If you are unhappy with the doctor, you can always go for a second opinion. I think you should get yourself to the book store or library and solicit some help/support from your husband or a very good friend. Additionally, find a top notch physician and therapist for your daughter. And again, if medication and therapy doesn't put a dent in all of this, perhaps you can speak to someone from the courts about a therapeutic boarding school. I wouldn't worry too much about the energy you will put into the diversion program. Right now, I would just try to get more civility within your home. I'm very sorry...that has got to be rough. Knowledge is power...so as best as you are able...do read up on the possible diagnosis's....including what your DR. has mentioned, bipolar illness and borderline personality disorder. [/QUOTE]
