[QUOTE="TeDo, post: 546193"] My son was diagnosis'd with ADHD at the age of 3 and was put on medication but we went with a non-stimulant. I didn't like the idea of my 3 year old being on "speed" even though that's what it was for. I just had a problem with that. My humble opinion is that if he is being that destructive to himself and property, you need to try and do something. ADHD medications, in most cases, simply slow the brain down enough so they can think things through instead of being so impulsive. It helps difficult child 1 a LOT. What kind of doctor are you taking him to? I agree that you should get in to a neuropsychologist if/when you can. They are much more thorough and will look at all the information they can get about the kid and do a variety of tests to narrow down the REAL cause of behaviors. In our case, he was right on. Welcome to our little corner of the world. Glad you found us but am sorry you were in a place where you needed to. [/QUOTE]
