[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 9837, member: 1550"] I have a mood disorder, which can often be mistaken for ADHD/ODD. I took one Ritalin and freaked out, and was afraid to take another one. Stimulants are, after all, speed and if it's not ADHD, they can cause extreme anxiety, even mood swings. You may want another evaluation. STims help everyone focus. Her other symptoms need attention as well. My guess is the medications are causing the anxiety and may even be really causing heart skips. I'd get another opinion on her diagnosis. Can't hurt. And I'd see the psychiatrist, not the school nurse. JMO. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
