[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 116401, member: 1233"] My kids are older now, and difficult child wasn't diagnosed until he was 7, but I do think managing diet andother thinkgs before you try medications is good, esp in such a young child. BUT if the child just can't function, or the family just doesn't function, medications are worth a try. Be sure to look up withdrawal symptoms BEFORE starting a medication as you may want to try adifferent one. Docs seem to discount or play down the withdrawal. I whole-heartedly think working ongetting the dyes and preservatives OUT of the family is super-important. We all do much better at EVERYTHING when I am able to cook and keep these out. The other thing that seems to cause problems for us is lack of protein. When my kids are really crabby they often need protein. Good luck with your new diet!! Susie [/QUOTE]
