[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 454166, member: 1550"] Children can be depressed. I was VERY depressed. I even thought about suicide. It really wasn't based on anything that was going on in my life...it was just me. I've fought depression all of my life. I'm not saying that the neuropsychologist got everything spot on because younger kids are hard to pin down and often get new diagnoses as they grow up and it is easier for them to explain themselves. But don't discount it. Along with depression comes anger (sometimes) and an inability to concentrate well or do well with friends or schoolwork. I'd go easy on the medications at his age though. I'm glad they didn't give him stimulants. They can make depression worse. They made me get high then crash and, in the end, started a looooooooong depression that I couldn't shake. Keep us posted!
