Hi, i am new to the forum. My name is Amanda and i am married and i have 3 kids. My oldest being 5 will be 6 in 2 weeks and he's got ODD. My middle April is 4 will be 5 in December and my Youngest is Ashton and he will be a year old in June.
Anyhow, my 5 year old was diagnosis with ODD and ADHD last May and has been on Concerta...but i noticed some of the side affects and took him off it recently...No the doctor wasn't aware of me taking him off it. I also Switched Docs. He's seeing a new doctor and i want him re-evaluated.
Illnessess like this run on hubby's side of the family.
My Mother in law is Manic Depressive and her 3 sisters and 1 brother also have bipolor and manic depressive...so I know a little about this.
I cannot be in the same room with my Mother in law..she threatened to throw me down the stairs back at Christmastime...So...
Well, what i am here for is looking for some support and what can i give for him for a diet...Currently its processed foods and dyes...and i want to kinda limit those...So what else can i give him without him throwing a huge fit.
Thanks
Amanda
