[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 346503, member: 1550"] Hi there. It's slow on weekends sometimes, but people will come around. Well, I think most of us understand "the looks" of other parents. I have a few questions to ask you that will help us help you. 1/Are you satisfied that ADHD is the only problem? in my opinion I think more is going on. Has he EVER been evaluated by a neuropsychologist? Many of us, myself included, feel they go the best evaluations because they actually test, usually from 6-10 hours, and can catch things others miss, even some psychiatrists. 2/Are there any psychiatric or substance abuse issues on either side of your son's genetic family tree? Even if Dad isn't there or was never there, 50% of his genes lives in your child. Often "issues" are inherited. 3/How was his early development as far as talking, making strong eye contact, easily socializing with his same age peers, motor skills? Does he have any obsessive interests or strange quirks such as arm flapping, lining up cars, or making strange throat or vocal noises? Does he repeat what he hears? Does he like to cuddle? Does he seem socially clueless and often look/act confused? How does he do at school? Does he ever seem like he is in his own world and then, at other times (perhaps in his own territory) confuse YOU because then he seems perfectly normal? Others will be along.
