" im not surprised as thay whant to save money . sadly my mom had to fight teeth and nails against all the so called professionals all the time and god bless her she dident give up on me but i can tell you i was a little devil and im NOT proud of it "
No, I am wanting to get her help. I took her at 5 years old and also suggested ADHD,but they didnt say anything about it...where else can I go?
" It all depends on were you live and what country "
I think here you need referrals . I found a place , but it costs over $1000 ! Im going to do more searching today, and see what I can find, while I wait for that place her school referred us to, to start .
" YIKES !!! well over here (sweden ) its all on the tax bill so the parents dont have to go bankrupt to help there kids . (we should also keep in mind that back in my days they dident know diddly about this diagnosis BUT i was also suggested a special school for this and similar diagnosis but it was my mom that stopped that one and i dont blame her she did what she thought was best for me BUT had i gotten the help i needed back then (ie youre daughters help ) i might have not been were i am today (check my profile and signature ) "
Also, I feel really bad about this, but I have yelled back many times and screammed...I am just at my whits and really stressed. I know it's no excuse, but would my screaming cause this behavior?
" First DONT blame yourself youre only human dear lord knows m mum and step dad had living nightmare with me (my reel dad left when i was still at the hospital ) "
Second in general when you scream back at her alredy fired up its like throwing gasoline on an ongoing fire .And it will sadly only either or both fire her up more or make her even more confused and scared /worked up frustrated etc..... then she alredy was "
She has been screaming non stop since she was a baby...and this behavior slowly started around 2-3 years old...I am working on being calm and trying to help her. She shows so many other signs of ADHD and autism though..Would my screaming alone cause all this?
" i have to agree with you that i do see MANY signs of ADHD as well as most defenetly ASD (you should also know that 80 % that has ADHD also have ASD and to this too diagnosis there are a TON of comorbid diagnosis as well to which i can also sence based on what youre describing multiple of of = hence its vital she gets a thural evaluation
In my opinion as i said before and based on how i work its NOT a good idea to be screaming or aggressive /confrontational against me when im said rage. as i will only get more fuel on my fire Its better to try to calm me down. And i also belive her reason for doing this is as Autstamatic says shes screaming for help out of both frustration , confusion most probably fear and this is how she deals with it. in other words she is as lost as lost can be in this word and she really needs help in trying to get her life in order

keep in mind that all of this diagnosis are also highly individual and also different between boys and girls (bacikly in us girls its harder to detect as we are more subtle in our ways to display our tics ) and its not uncommon for us that they dont find ASD until were adult
