[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 152704, member: 2423"] Welcome. I'm glad you found us, but sorry you needed to. I have a few questions for you that I hope will help us help you: Has your son ever had a neuropsychological evaluation? Is it the current psychiatrist who gave the ADHD diagnosis? Is he taking any medications? If so, what and at what dose? What medications do you expect the psychiatrist will suggest next? How does he do in school, both academically and with peers? Any developmental or speech delays? Any sensory issues (for example, sensitivity to clothing tags, loud noises, food textures)? Any mental health issues or substance abuse in the family tree? In the interim, you might want to get your hands on a copy of The Explosive Child by Ross Greene. It has helped many of us on the board parent our extra-challenging children. When you get a chance, please go to "User CP" at the top left side of this page and create a signaure similar to mine below. It helps us keep everyone on the board straight. Again, welcome. [/QUOTE]
