Does anyone Know Where I can find an adopt a family program in NY?

We Answered:

Begging for stuff for the holidays, you should be ashamed of yourself. You put yourself in that situation so you could take advantage of peoples good nature.
You have a disease called munchausen by proxy.
Shame on you!
Go seek counseling.

herniated disk pain help?

We Answered:

My suggestion would be to get a gravity bed or table (I am not sure what it is called) or an Ab Lounger (they are only about $100.) He can hang from it a few times a day to elongate the spine and take the pressure off the discs. I use an ab cruncher to alleviate the pain in my spine. (My Doctor has had me on Vicodin, in controlled doses and testing between every new prescription to keep me pain free.) I have Rheumatoid arthritis and Fibromyalgia.

The Gravity table or bed would allow the spine to open up a little and take the pressure off the discs. After stretching he could try using a elastic back support to keep it in place and avoid the pressure and shifting on the discs reoccurring for a while.

By taking 2 Ibuprofen alternately with 2 Excedrin will help some with the pain and the inflammation and swelling in the discs. At night he can take 2 Night time PM by Excedrin (I use the store brand) to kill pain to sleep.

God Bless and Good luck in solving the problem.

Is traditional (talk) psychotherapy helpful for everybody?

We Answered:

I did years of Psychotherapy and found no benefits. You may want to try looking into Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT). The therapist helps you identify cognitive distortions and helps you change them. This sort of therapy can proceed rather quickly and you can feel the benefits within weeks to a few months. Changing out negative thinking patterns and learned behaviors can make a huge difference in how we deal with life.
Good luck!

Ex wants receipts things bought with child support?

We Answered:

I would tell him that he is being unreasonable, but if he wants receipts then fine. Also, in the meantime I would appeal the courts, find you a great lawyer or a judge that will sympathize with your situation. No offense, and in most situations I would not say try to get even with him, but find his weak spot, pride, whatever it is and CRUSH him. Do anything you can to get full custody of your son.

Pauline Said:

Is there sensory integration services available for adults with Autism?

We Answered:

Sounds like you are hypersensitive to touch- also called tactile defensive. There is a therapeutic protocol that may help your issues. It was started by Patty Wilbarger and there are therapists that are trained in the Deep pressure protocol (previously known as brushing). This treatment helps the body accommodate to tactile information in a more typical fashion and decreases the sensitivity.

There may be some additional social/emotional factors involved in your discomfort with intimate touch that the technique won't address, but it's worth a try. You can seek classes or counseling for dealing with the social/emotional issues.
