Daydreaming Hippie
Hi, Im new, i came to this site because my son has alot of the symptoms of ADHD. He is a sweet boy, however he started early childhood classes (preschool) and has been getting in trouble for not following the rules, getting time outs, and when i try to talk to him about it, i cant ever get him to focus to look at me and talk, he just squirms around in his chair and doesnt seem to be able to just listen. he worries me, how he cant spend 1 minute sitting and talking to me, his mind is always elsewhere. Hes constantly hyperactive, running around everywhere, has trouble with playing quietly. we have trouble getting him to settle down to eat and he doesnt want to eat. Trouble getting him to go to bed, even when he is so tired that his eyes are dark around them and he cant stop rubbing them, he still cant stop running around. I havent got him tested, i guess ive been really just hoping his just really just a hyperactive child, but focusing and listening is really hard for him, and he gets these outbursts and can become aggressive.
I havent talked to the teacher much to ask her if she thinks that he has ADHD, but she does give me reports everyday , and alot have that he has trouble with following the rules, has became angry and thrown fits, difficulty following directions and participating.
I have decided i want to get him tested, but what is the first step? I dont know what to do.
Does this sound like ADHD? please help. thank you
