[QUOTE="pepperidge, post: 402576, member: 2322"] HI all I can is I sympathise. been there done that got the t-shirt and have cried more nights than you can imagine. Actually you can imagine. I really recommend reading Ross Greene, and as a teacher I think you will particuarly enjoy his book Lost at School. I think so many of our kids problems are exacerbated by school reaction to their behavior. Are you really confident with your child psychiatrist? I say that only because we have seen much worse behavior after putting our children on anti depressants. For some it is no doubt a great medicine but for others it is a nightmare. I would work hard to find the very best neuropsychologist evaluation you can. Not the school district's !!! A good one takes about two full days or so. You have so many red flags that I think your child really needs the very best diagnosis and pscyho pharmacological approach you can find. That's not to say that there is anything horrible wrong but that are so many things that could be for which the treatment might be slightly different medication or behavior wise that it makes sense to sort it out.
