Nancy, thanks for posting symptoms. Any idea HOW to find a therapist with speciality in AttDis in ADULT adoptee? My med plan psychs treat my son for the symptoms, which are the "common" ones (for AD patients) of anxiety and depression. But who helps the root causes, helps them learn adaptive behaviors, helps them find reasons to hope for a better life? I've run out of ideas! worriedparent
