[QUOTE="hamsterwheel, post: 326294, member: 2281"] I am answering all responses in this one lengthy post. Sorry She sees a psychiatrist every month & we have a family therapist that comes to the home weekly and her therapist is out on maternity leave until March. She did have Medicaid until end of November, but no longer is covered, because one of the agencies involved to assist us was going to pay the health insurance premium and didnt so now shes in the hospital & not covered. I tried for social security and was denied because I am over their income guidelines. Since when is having a disability have anything to do with income? There is a crisis plan in place, an intervention plan, and the entire police department knows who we are. I have no problems calling them each time resulting in a hospitalization. The team is what I am looking for. So far I have two members, our family therapist who has been doing her all to advocate for us going above and beyond the call of duty and my personal therapist. Now if I can find the people who have the authority to make a difference for difficult child well have something. Even the psychiatrist is relatively dismissive. Yes, tried to find another & tried all the providers listed with the ins., but now no longer have insurance. I continue to run into situations of, well try this agency and passing us along. If I could find someone to truly take an interest and examine the whole situation instead of following protocol & procedures and passing the buck, we may stand a chance. She did go for the neuropsychological evaluation several years ago and I was told she falls under the umbrella of emotionally disturbed and was classified as Bipolar for insurance/medication purposes. I am going to ask to have the neuropsychological evaluation done again, so thank you for bringing that up. We ran into a medication problem last time she was in the hospital 2 weeks ago because, according to state law, they have to inform patients they can refuse their medication, so she did. I can not figure out for the life of me how a child is given the authority to make that kind of decision. This time, THANK GOD, she recognizes that she is off the wall and has agreed to go back on it and take the higher dose. Since Ive been up this morning, I have emailed, the state, my congressman, the hospital and the local news. I am truly tired of being passed along, watching my child suffer in the interim. I would like to learn more about the borderline personality so I am about to go Google it. I am not sure how I feel about this, but I am willing to explore it. My difficult child, suffers from feelings of abandonment. She does not feel loved or wanted. There are many circumstances and life tragedies that have led up to this. Im tired of hearing that kid just need a good wack on her tailend. I would love to see someone try to do that, cause I did several years ago and then had the child protection agency breathing down my neck. Not a mark on her just a spank on the bottom when she was about 8. By law if an authority figure becomes aware of it, (the school), they have to report it. She didnt like being disciplined. It was a whole other story when she kicked the principal for being disciplined though. If anyone thinks of anything else, I could or should be doing please let me know. I am so glad you are all here. PS: I did take some time with husband last night, easy child was with-gma. It was nice, no fires, no drama just us. Forgot what it was like was so nice to remember why I married him :) [/QUOTE]
