Glad to hear the good news here too. You'll have to tell us how everything goes. It really does help to have a family psychologist. Best of luck to you and wishing you a good New Year!

Oh good I'm so happy you are able to get help that is what you need. No one can do everything for thier child by themselves. I hope to hear how the pshycologist turns out because I have a problem that doesnt involve anxiety or depression. It's Jake's impulsiveness, they want to send him to a pshycologist and a nuerologist. impulsiveness gets him in trouble and then people could get hurt and we can't get that concept in his thick head. we are waiting till after the holidays because he is fine without school. He is not overwhelmed with to much to do. We cant go to more than three stores a day or school and then the dr's office it's one or the other. Things like that, so I hope you all have a great New Year full of good health and good times

I will let you know how it goes. We were recommended to take Sean to a nuero too but the 1st available appt. is not until February. Im hoping the psychologist can help some, however I have a feeling that medication is going to be needed. If that's the case then I guess we are back to the whole finding a psychiatrist thing.

You may not have to wait, if the physchologist is recommending that he be put on med's, the peditrician should be able to write the prescriptions and monitor him for you until you are able to get a appt. with the physchatrist. I know with my son, once the pedi had an accurate evaluation, he wrote the prescriptions for us until we found a physch....the physchologist may also be able to set you up with a child physch right in his office, once he makes the evaluation. While you are there, ask them to fax over asap. a copy of their findings to the peditrician so that he has everything he needs in the event that he has to write the prescriptions. Good luck and let us know how you make out.
