[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 416694, member: 1550"] Before putting him back on medication or asking for anything, in my opinion, he needs a total evaluation. Is there a reason you have not taken him for one? I highly recommend a private neuropsychologist. You can go from there, but I agree that medication is pretty useless if you have no idea what the problem is. On top of that, he needs school interventions which he can only get with a bonafide diagnosis. Has your son had any intensive therapy for the sexual abuse? You say that the older two children have CD. Is there any mental illness on your husband's family tree? What about yours? Any neuological disorders, such as autistic spectrum disorder? Untreated, the kids usually get worse as time goes on and they grow bigger and more angry. Psychiatrists usually don't do testing.I'm not a big fan of throwing random medications at our kids unless they know what is going on. Good luck whatever you decide to do :). [/QUOTE]
