[QUOTE="debr, post: 279549, member: 7472"] To quickly update I have been questioning add diagnosis. Went to school psychiatric, teacher and Special Education teacher to get their opinions. they feel that she is not add but is more related to anxiety. went to therapist last night and she is also of the opnion that fgf suffers from low self esteem, anxiety and shyness. Asked if she would recommend psychiatric evaluation so we can get fgf on anti anxiety medications like lexapro(I currently taake 10 mg for anxiety due to difficult child and husband who is permanetly disabled and dealing with his daily pain, depression). THerpaist does not believe medications are the answer and feels psychiatric evaluation is just a bunch of tests. Due to see the dr who made the oroginal diagnosis of add next week. Last time we were there she mentioneded anxiety. Does anyone have any organic/vitamins that may help with anxiety? We are going away for the month of July so I want to start moving in a apostivie direction so things will be in place before the school year begins. Also any feedback on plus or minus with the use of lexapro or any other anti anxiety medications? [/QUOTE]
