Has anyone felt totally judged by a child therapist?

[QUOTE="PiscesMom, post: 720403, member: 19889"] Thanks you both!!! I broke down and gave her risperdal. My therapist talked me into it. I gave her .5 mg last night. She slept from 7pm, and is still in bed, it is 3pm now. When I woke her up to bring her homework to school, she was very anxious, and said it was the medication; she had had nightmares all night. And, Susie Star, I am just seeing what you wrote now, about risperdal. I haven't been here in a bit. I talked to her dr and a pharmacist - both said it couldn't be the risperdal. When I called the school to say she couldnt go, they said her attendance was going to be tracked for SARB. We are in California. OMG. So my anxiety is triggered. I am looking into home schooling. I don't have money for things like advocates, and horse stuff, or anything. It doesnt look like she can just drop out in CA, so that is why I am looking into homeschooling. Because I am afraid. I am sick of everything. I am sick of participating in hurting my child. About horses, the charter school she is enrolled at - a "non public school" its called, has them learn how to care for horses. I wanted her to go there so much, but now I feel like I have to figure out how to get her out of the school system ASAP. Maybe it is my anxiety talking??? Thank you both so much for being on my side. Its hard to explain to a professional that therapy is harmful for her. And what if I did homeschool her? I am a college graduate. We are both intellectually curious. In January, she will be 17, and can go with her big sister to LARP - its this way of playing in costumes. Maybe homeschooling, the pressure of school off her back, gentle excursions into the world. Maybe that is best? I could conceivably be fined, jailed, she could be taken from me? Thats what SARB can do. [/QUOTE]
