[QUOTE="Feeling Helpless, post: 203519, member: 5963"] My difficult child is taking Concerta 36mg that his pediatrician prescribed. I have in the last month starting taking him to our family physician who wants to see him every 3 months. My difficult child has been seeing a psychologist for the last 4 nonths with no results. I got an appointment today to take him to see a psychiatrist on the 11th of November but they told me the evaluation would take about an hour and half. I do not know what a neuropsychologist is or what they do. My sister has a grandson with ADHD/CD. Also from what I have found out about my difficult child's father my difficult child would have a cousin with ADD but I am not 100% sure he is even his father. My difficult child's mother has some problems when she was younger. She went to counseling. She was very depressed,suicidal for a while and had substance abuse for a short time. She was 17 when he was born. SHe is now married with an 18 month old and seems to be fine. My difficult child only takes Concerta and it does seem to help him to sit still in school and focus. When he does not have it he is very annoying,bounces off the walls, talks 90 miles an hour so yes I do think it helps with his ADHD. It is all the other problems I do not know how to deal with. I am hoping the psychiatrist can help me. [/QUOTE]
