[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 474837, member: 1550"] Children can be depressed. I was depressed for as far back as I could remember and was obsessed with death and dying and it had nothing to do with songs I heard or ADHD. I would think the depression would be more serious than the ADHD, which I probably also would have been diagnosed with had they diagnosed ANYTHING back then. I think it is a very good idea to get him diagnosed ASAP. It is no fun to lose your childhood to depression/anxiety/feelings of hopelessness. If you can get him in to see a neuropsychologist that would be great. If not, I'd take him to see a child psychiatrist (the guy with the MD). Good luck and keep us posted! [/QUOTE]
