[QUOTE="Malika, post: 415770, member: 11227"] How confident are you that the diagnosis of ADHD is correct? I confess I know very little about bipolar disorder, which is very rarely diagnosed here in children... Why is the doctor not sharing his diagnoses with you? Must be something to do with the system in the States. The child psychiatrist I have seen once with my son told me very cheerily when I expressed hesitation about Ritalin "Oh, these drugs don't work on children who don't have ADHD".... So is the fact that the medication your son is on (like Ritalin??) is not working a sign that it is not a correct diagnosis? Has your son always been "difficult", since babyhood? Complete stab in the dark but is any of his difficult behaviour related to having to share you with your adopted and foster children? [/QUOTE]
