Thank you for all the welcomes

I've been very busy with my son since my original post. Last weekend wasn't a good one and Monday he was admitted to the Hospital. They did start him on a new Med, Geodon, and hopefully the Doctor has diagnosed him correctly. He has not ruled out Bi-Polar but sees him more as Major Depressive, Narcissistic Personality, ADHD, and has Mild Mental Retardation. Unfortunately he does not feel that Bariatric Treatment would be a good alternative for weight loss for him because of his lack of understanding, and unwillingness to participate. I am still going to check into the treatment and see what the Bariatric Doctor says. I am quite comfortable with the diagnosis and feel that maybe we can get somewhere now. I just hope that my expectations won't disappoint me again. I am also going to suggest that he be put back into the Middle School he was at last year and possibly start him in a Th or Th grade curriculum since he has gotten nothing out of school so far this year. All the support and suggestions here and at Psych-Central have been so helpful. It really helps me to keep my hopes up and continue the efforts. Wish us luck for the New Year, and Happy New Year to all
