[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 145983, member: 1550"] Hi, and welcome. Your problems, believe it or not, are common among are kids. I have some questions to ask that may help. 1/ Has your son ever had a complete evaluation by a NeuroPsychologist (this is NOT just a plain ole psychologist and it is not a pediatric neurologist either. Many of us have found NeuroPsychs a godsend). 2/How was his early development? Did he speak on time and appropriately? Did he make good, strong eye contact both with family and strangers? Does he have any "quirks"--hand flapping, high vocal sounds, lining up toys over and over again, anything that struck you as unusual. How are his social skills with his peers? Is he particularly precocious and does he speak like a "little professor?" Any extremely unusual advanced abilities? 3/Are there are psychiatric or neurological or substance abuse issues on either side of the family tree? Does he have sleep issues? What causes him to rage? Can he transition well? 4/ Are you convinced that the professionals he has seen so far are on track? Zoloft and Straterra can make kids who are misdiagnosed even worse. How do you feel about the Zoloft? Others will come along. [/QUOTE]
