[QUOTE="Lothlorien, post: 282963, member: 1024"] I would echo what Nomad said. I, too, have an 8 year old. Docs are more apt to diagnoses ADHD, before bipolar. My daughter has a mood disorder...she has rages. We tried several medications before they finally put her on Risperdal. She is not on any other medication (except for seizure medications, which is also used for mood stabilization). The Risperdal did make a huge difference in her aggression. When Missy was on ADHD medications, she was extremely intense and it made her aggression worse. I d/c'd them after a few weeks. I would be looking into getting another opinion from neuropshych.
