[QUOTE="Liahona, post: 588785"] Hi and welcome! My sister's family is in the air force. They can see a developmental pediatrician. I don't know if the air force insurance and army insurance are the same. TK sounds a bit like my oldest. He has many issues at the same time. She probably doesn't have all his issues. He also has attacked the other kids. (his was with the intent to kill. I don't know if TK had that intention and planing or just got mad and out of control.) Shows little or no remorse unless caught and their is no other way out. Doesn't accept responsiblity for his own behavior. Also doesn't always understand that he shouldn't say certain things to some people. (We just had a talk that you don't talk about making bombs in school or at gov't buildings.) We also had eating issues (but for differant reasons.) He would refuse to eat for days and then binge when he got hungry enough to eat. I have often wondered if my oldest has an attachment disorder, but so far the professionals say he doesn't. What I have done to keep everyone safe is to put an alarm on his door. Then I would put a baby monitor up so I could hear the alarm. I kept a phone in my pocket so I could call for help, and my keys with my also so he couldn't lock me out of the house with him and the other kids inside the house. I found I couldn't keep him in his room all the time, so most times he had to be my shadow. That meant in my sight at all times, not behind me in the same room or beside me, but in my sight. With the food the rule was he had to eat two small bowls of cereal. Some times he wanted more sometimes he wanted none. With my other kids the rule is they have to eat 3 bites. If TK has such sensory issues you are worried about her weight an Occupational Therapist (OT) might help. I am also on an anti depressant. If you can get a psychiatrist for yourself that would be good, or even a good general dr that knows enough to change your paxil. There are lots of medications. It doesn't have to be just that one medication at that one dose or nothing. I do understand that with everyone else needing taking care of that your dr appointments just don't happen. You'll be better able to take care if them if you are more functional. Again welcome. [/QUOTE]
