[QUOTE="MsMichelle, post: 52956, member: 3835"] Busywend, in answer to your question:Why did I mention Sensory Integration Disorder (SID) if I haven't noticed any sensory issues? Just last week there was a short piece on the evening news about an Occupational Therapist at a local hospital that is making great strides with kids with Sensory Integration Disorder (SID).

One of the highlighted patients was a little boy of 7 years old that had many of my son's "symptoms" (behavioral issues, poor academic progress, inflexible, poor peer relationships).

I really don't care what he has, what it is called but am exploring all avenues to get him help.

I am a rational person and while I am exploring I plan on keeping things the same in his life, keeping him on the medications that don't seem to be causing him more problems, sticking with the same psychiatrist and therapist. Someone else asked about whether or not my son has an IEP. I pushed and pushed and finally got the ball rolling with him being evaluated.
