[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 87108, member: 1550"] I was actually thinking of early onset bipolar. He sounds too friendly to be a spectrum kid. Course I don't know him and am not a doctor. I'd take him to a neuropsychologist. I'd want another evaluation. That sort of acting out in my opinion is going way beyond even severe ADHD. If bipolar is in the family, I'd want it checked out completely. Substance abuse is also a red flag for mood disorders. We didn't have much luck with regular psychologists or the school, as far as diagnosing. If he has a mood disorder, ADHD medications can make the disorder even more severe. [/QUOTE]
