[QUOTE="dca, post: 174853, member: 5577"] Thanks for all of your suggestions. She did agree to go to the PHD last night after speaking to him on the phone. We met for about an hour (me, wife and difficult child) and then difficult child met with him alone for 20 minutes. She was really upset afterwords. My wife spoke to the PHD today and he sees her as being very confused and can't quite fiqure out why she is acting out so much. He thinks she may have a bi-polar issue. He believes that since she is so high functioning that depression is not a big concern. difficult child had another outburst this morning when she was told to get out of bed to feed her puppy and take him out. She basically dumped some food on the floor and went back to bed. Our guess is that since the doctor didn't tell her what she wanted to hear, that she is angry again. She is now on the porch sulking. We offered to give her a replacement phone, an old one, since her phone was destroyed when she had a recent outburst. The replacement phone apparently is not good enough. We replied that if she wants to use her babysitting money, she can buy a new one. No response to that though. We contacted her swim coach and did not give him the whole picture, but he is going to have one of the captains reach out to her. Thanks for listening to the vent. Any further thoughts would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
