Xanax anyone?

We had a showing of our house yesterday.
I haven't heard anything from the realtor. So I'm guessing they didn't like it.
I feel a little insulted each time we have a showing with no offers........I also end up feeling a little relieved.

It's beautiful outside.
We got about four inches of snow during the night.
I'm a little worried about oldest son. He went out to The Shack ( it's a shack they built on the property they hunt.) last evening for the night. They built a wood burning stove in the shack..  I worry about carbon monoxide poisoning, and fire.

My older sister looked like shit on Christmas. She was frying on some kind of drug.......I hear she uses Heroine and Adderall............her son is also using. I hear he's using Heroine. He had a wild far away look in his eye mixed with a look of paranoia...........lsot in his own head. I'm 99 % sure they're using together. I can't begin to imagine using drugs with my child........or anyone elses for that matter.
I had a little bit of hope for her a few weeks ago........she sounded clean. And maybe she was...... But she's not now............... she looks like a strung out junkie.
I have no doubt that she will die. If you could see her you'd understand.
Dr. Drew says it's much more difficult for older people to quit drugs. I forget his explanation for why.........................................
Maybe there's hope for my nephew (this is not the nephew I wrote about a few blogs back)..........it's sad seeing them like that...........................................which brings me to my daughter....................so the school counselor, who daughter says is a psychiatrist spent time talking to daughter...................................................she concluded daughter has ADD without hyperactivity............................she referred her to a psychologist......................................I took her to the psychologist who reviewed daughter's testing for learning disabilities done while daughter was in high school.....................and she talked with daughter for quite some time..........................she said to me, with daughters permission, she believes daughter may have mild ADD (that's what she said) with an anxiety disorder. She believes an anti anxiety medication will help with the anxiety which will help daughter to focus in school.
I don't have much faith in the psychiatric community. They're quick to pull out a prescription pad...............and in general I think they're full of shit ....................with the exception of Dr. Drew, and he's not really a psychiatrist.......................................................................but I worry about daughter ending up self medicating. this whole school struggle thing has been going on since the third grade. Something has to give.............................................................................................we had the psychologist send her notes/recommendations to daughters doctor...............she still goes to her pediatrician.......because she can until she 23,and because we don't think about finding her an adult doctor until she gets sick..............................................so we'll talk to him and see what he says.........................................................I kind of feel lost as to what to do........................................................most ADD and ADHD children have behavior problems........Sis has never had problems with behavior in school or at home...............................................the only thing unusual I remember about her from she was a little child was she loved to climb..........more so than other children....................so I'd take her to all those wall climbing things where they'd harness you in and you'd climb..............she loved it............................................................................and she had one horrible grand mal seizure where she turned grey and stopped breathing for what felt like an eternity............while I was on the phone with 911 I remembered I was a nurse, threw the phone and ran to give daughter mouth to mouth...............and one year to that day exactly, she had another seizure...........................................none since that I'm aware of...................she wasn't sick either of those times........didn't have a fever or anything......................not sure why she seized.............neither is her doctor.........................I don't know what to do.............................................I don't want her on drugs....................I don't want her to end up self medicating........................................and I must say that I still believe her anxiety is a result of her difficulties learning rather than the other way around.......................................but I hate the thought of her being on ADD medications....................... somethings got to give.
We need help.
Good help.
