[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 25466, member: 393"] CJ, I'd like to offer that many times, PTSD can present as ADHD. Traumatized children have little ability to focus or sit still; often are in a constant state of "fight or flight". At this point, it's difficult to be "stuck", if you will, with a psychiatrist focusing on one & only one diagnosis. It sounds like there is much more going on with your difficult child than ADHD; those issues will need to be addressed - I'd hope sooner rather than later. Keeping you & your family in my thoughts. I hope you can find a balance soon. [/QUOTE]
