[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 494507, member: 1550"] To me it sounds like a Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)/form of autism, high functioning, not just ADHD. Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) kids do notoriously poorly on stimulants many times as they tend to be very sensitive to medication. They also puzzle pediatricians and teachers. Neuropsychs are best as diagnosticians in my opinion. Their first diagnosis is almost always ADHD or ADHD/ODD. These kids also have huge anxiety issues, especially with transition switching and trying anything new and often other things that confuse us as parents. They are sort of "odd ducks." Keep us posted.
