new diagnosis
Today we ventured to the doctor during the snowstorm. I was hoping we could get there and back before the snow but it wasn't meant to be. Anyways, we now have a new diagnosis. She is being treated for ADD this time with Ritalin. All I keep remembering about Ritalin is a boy who killed a girl many years ago and he took Ritalin and the defense used was that the drug made him do it. Now I know, of course, that it was only one case but it came to mind, nonetheless. So, I will be giving her this drug tomorrow and keeping my fingers crossed that it works. If it doesn't, it doesn't but I have this selfish part of me that just wants a little old fashioned normalcy to my life and I'm sure she does too. You see, I don't know what she feels like cause I have bipolar disorder not ADD. So, wish me luck!
