[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 453579, member: 11791"] Strattera. Its like every other drug... it either works FOR you, or it works AGAINST you, or it does nothing. What works for YOU almost kills ME.... You have to find what works, and go with it... and then adjust, and adjust, and then they hit puberty and you adjust some more. Guess what - its really not all that different from the rest of kid-dom, except "our" kids are more extreme. You're working with a top hospital (many on the board are not so familiar with Canada's layout etc.) - so, dxes are probably relevant. Time will prove if they are accurate, or if there is yet another layer... but you do have something more to go on. I'm not overly surprised - being familiar with ADHD and some other LDs and other disabilities... and the impact on anxiety. Start from where you are, and find things that work, and go from there. The Explosive Child is kind of "the" book around here - seems to apply to lots of kids, but not all. Might also want to check out "Driven to Distraction" (by Halloway, I think) - a really, really good ADHD book. [/QUOTE]
