[QUOTE="Worried Daddy, post: 639546, member: 18537"] Hi We attended a clinic - for children with mental health needs. A paediatrician diagnosed him. The medication is for the ADHD - to help settle his impulsive urges and inattention. We've attended several parenting courses aimed at helping the immediate and extended family to deal with his needs. This included helping us with his routines, managing behaviour lessing his anxiety etc. We have a review coming up with the clinic. I feel like an idiot for not knowing what type of specialist the Dr who diagnosed is. This is the blurb off their website "community based specialist health service for children and young people, living within the Counties Manukau region, who are experiencing serious emotional, psychological or behavioural disturbance, suspected psychiatric illness or serious mental illness." We live in New Zealand. [/QUOTE]
