Dd has felt sick, tired and achey since June. She changed from being outgoing to needing us to pick her up from social events due to feeling sick.
She has had bloodtests (all clear) so G.P thinks it is anxiety.
I have asked for her to be assessed for ADHD. She scores highly on online tests, especially for innattentiveness. She is often refuses to do things dispite clear consequences. Even as a young child time out ect never worked although up to now her behaviour has been managable.
She constantly forgets and loses things, has poor organisational skills, no concept of time. has episodes of manic behaviour, constant talking, making noises, fidgeting She also has slumps where she is sloth like, wont move or do anything. She lacks empathy and can be very quite selfish although she can be very kind too.
Getting her to school has been a struggle since Sept. I take all screens of her at 9:30pm (no tv or ipad at all if she misses school.) She wont go to sleep and keeps putting her light on.
She is then a nightmare to get up at 7am. I have to stay with her and help her dress and do her hair or she wont go to school.
This morning she hit me because I took her quilt off her when she would not get up.
I would be grateful for any advice on this.
