[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 465964, member: 11791"] I would guess its time for another round of evaluations. I'm seeing burn-out. He really can't do what is asked of him at school right now - and you need to find out why. ADHD is co-morbid with all sorts of other dxes... chances are really high that there are more reasons for school problems than just the ADHD and mood disorder ... Some examples: - handwriting - if it isn't efficient and effective (doesn't need to be pretty), then they fall behind real fast - have to be able to listen and write, think and write... - auditory issues - trouble following what the teacher is saying? could be issues filtering out the normal background noise. Causes HUGE issues in school, and it gets worse as they get older - working memory issues - more and more work requires "recall" as they get older; if working memory is a problem, they can't consistently pull the info out of their brains... - other learning disabilities such as dysgraphia There are all sorts of accommodations and interventions for these kinds of things. And problems like these, when not detected, definitely contribute to mood disorders. [/QUOTE]
