So now I go into this appt terrified and wary as a feral animal,stressed to breaking by the pending disability review…bad juju abounds.

Sadly,he has been seeing a counselor 3 times a month per insurance allowance for a year and zero difference has been made. 2 different counselors. My kid will not cooperate and just gets worse despite meds and counseling. I am exhausted.
