[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 60229, member: 2423"] While I agree with the need for an evaluation, please don't go into the appointment thinking that it has to be ADHD. Lots of disorders can mimic the symptoms of ADHD, and you need to get a doctor to tease out what's really going on or the interventions won't match the disorder. I agree with the need for neuropsychological testing. Your difficult child could have anxiety or a learning disability, for example, with the symptoms you describe. Please make sure you get a thorough evaluation before "deciding" it has to be ADHD. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
