questions and venting   Message List  
Reply | Forward Message #120 of 1347 |
Hi everyone it's me again. I have somemore questions for somebody(
maybe I don't have any questions and feel like I need to vent!) I
have been trying to find a psyhcologist that would be able to help my
daughter...and have had no luck! The last few doctors I have talked
to want to treat her for something different than SM. One even said
she is having panic attacks( not the case) and when asked if he has
ever dealt with a child with SM he replied "no". How am I to find
help when nobody has ever dealt with a person with SM? I am in tears
every time I get off the phone with a doctor like this! To me it
sounds like I know more than they do, and I don't have a degree
hanging on my wall! Alot of people don't even take SM seriosly, but
thats because it's not thier child! My child would never be able to
defend herself from a dangerous situation or can't even ask to use
the restroom! What is a parent to do at this point? Any input would
be great! Thanks for listening.
