[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 547184, member: 1550"] Be careful of the bipolar diagnosis. by the way, not otherwise specified means (not otherwise specified). Your child may end up on a ton of heavy medication when the "bipolar" may really be just the normal moodswings of the pervasive developmental disorder (which is another way of saying Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)). This happens all the time. I'm so sorry my son spent three years on medications like Lithium and Risperdal and Zyprexa when the problem with just his Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) and his "moodswings" disappeared as he grew older. I'm glad you have some idea of what is going on and hope you can address this in school. Does your precious little one have an IEP? [/QUOTE]
