@Barefooter25 she did ask us to. But they are rare she's had 2 in the past 3 years. They aren't common. But we have a system of support, a schedule and her sensory bag that helps her stay calm when she's feeling overwhelmed.

I don’t think you should be stressing over why you’re stressing. Anxiety is anxiety.
But anxiety is fear of whatever. Feeling helpless.
From where I sit, like it or not, I think you rock. You’ve more than managed to shine your light. You’ve found love, are raising three kids with thoughtful love. You have a job. An adopted grandmother/mother. Friends.
That said, neurologist visits ARE scary. I don’t usually visibly get anxious, but I’m anxious.
You’re there for information. That’s what is scary.

@Mamapolo2016 last time I was at a neurologist they told me I was to old to be helped and I should just deal with my issues on my own. But I worry more about what she will say about my daughter and me not willing to allow her to cause her to have a panic attack so she can see what triggers her to that point. I won't do it. It takes her days to recover from a panic attack and I can't willing let someone do that. I worry she be mad and stop treating her. And we'll have to find a new doctor
And thank you for the kind words. It means alot for you to say that and honestly each day I'm believing it a little more

@Friendlyperson it went well. I'm starting some new meds and some new ideas that she thinks in time will help me replace some of my outbursts with less noticeable tics and help me calm my ocd

@Friendlyperson we are kind of putting things on hold with her until we move to the new house. She is doing ok but I can tell she's a little anxious about the move. We all are. Once we move next week and she's adjusting well we're going to do a med change on her and start some other things with her. But I held firm we're not triggering a panic attack for her to observe at her office
