[QUOTE="keista, post: 457734, member: 11965"] They don't have to "officially" diagnosis it it as such to treat it as such. DD1 is diagnosed with mood disorder not otherwise specified and anxiety. She doesn't fit the clinical description of anything, but something is definitely wrong. She's been on 3 SSRIs and 2 have CAUSED more problems and the third she had an unacceptable but 'benign' side effect (chronic fatigue) A related disorder that I've been researching lately is cyclothemia or cyclothemic disorder. It can be diagnosed in kids. How and when was she diagnosed with ADD? It is absolutely possible to have both, but also possible to get those "hyper" periods mis-diagnosed as ADD. DD1 very often (more often now since she's off all medications) appears to have ADHD, but it was ruled out with the TOVA. Also the screening sheets given to me and teachers don't indicate ADD - either type - or anything else, for that matter. [/QUOTE]
