[QUOTE="ck1, post: 98180, member: 3767"] Heather: thanks for the feedback. I do believe that he has ADHD, he's pretty classic. I think he's not showing the signs because of the small class-size and lack of distractions (ipod, cell, laptop) and choices. I'd believe ADHD is the right diagnosis before any of the others but I think you're right about his ability to control it if the other symptoms are controlled. He has taken risperdal in the past, but I think his highest dose was .5. He started taken seroquil again because he said it helps him more. He takes 100mg at night. He has seen I think six psychiatrists in the last 13 months and all have said no bipolar but do say mood disorder. One of those that said no to the bipolar works in the childrens bipolar clinic in Pittsburgh so she sees it a lot. Now that I think about it, the seroquil was started by the psychiatrist when he was at boarding school last semester and was VERY depressed so I wonder if it will keep working? [/QUOTE]
