[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 660758, member: 11791"] Technically, yes. Depends on which mood disorder. And on whether you can find a medication that works for the condition and doesn't interfere with other medications or other parts of their life... for some kids, no medications work. Depression, for example, often can be treated with just talk therapy, IF the person really wants to work the program AND isn't actively self-harming. You can't use medications to diagnose a disorder. You have to get a really SOLID diagnosis. Mood stabilizers are brutal - lots of side effects, some permanent. You really don't want to go there unless it is really necessary. [/QUOTE]
