[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 287924, member: 1991"] Welcome to the site. We can't diagnose here but it sounds to me that your grandson needs a torough evaluation to see exactly ehat could be the trouble. Caqlling it bipolar without an evaluation could risk a misdiagnosis and possible mistreatment/loss of good treatment time. Oter possibilities include Asperger's Syndrome (or other form of Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)). ADHD alone can explain it. Have a look at [url]www.childbrain.com[/url] and look for their online Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) questionnaire - again, it (and we) can't be used to diagnose, but you can run the test on him, print it out regardless of the result and show your son along with our posts here. If you take it to a specialist it can show other areas of concern that were at the back of your mind but which may not have been considered. How old is he? If you do a sig for yourself with this sort of data, it saves you having to re-type it every time you post. Welcome to the site, there is a lot of collective wisdom here but there is always room for more. Marg [/QUOTE]
