[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 90278, member: 805"] I can't speak specifically to the zoloft, but I can tell you that my difficult child was diagnosis'd with depression when he was 8. Kids with adhd are more likely to have comorbid issues. My difficult child was diagnosis'd with depression, started on remeron, and began weekly therapy. Within 14 days I began to see an "eveness" about him. Around the 30 day mark his teachers commented on the improvement. Noone can predict how your child will do on a given medication. They all react so differently. His psychiatrist recommended the remeron because it did have fewer side effects and also had the effect of helping difficult child sleep which was a help to his overall mood. I think the previous posters have asked a lot of good questions that must be considered. How long has the doctor known your difficult child, how long have the symptoms been around, any side effects noticed from the add medications, is he in weekly/monthly therapy? Sharon [/QUOTE]
