[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 340534, member: 2423"] I still think you should take your difficult child for a thorough evaluation before medicating. It's very important to know what you're dealing with before throwing medications at a problem. Certain medications like stimulants and antidepressants can make bipolar disorder worse, for example, so you do want to know if that's what your difficult child has. Similarly, you could be wasting a lot of time with medications if your difficult child has an Autistic Spectrum Disorder and would benefit from interventions like speech and Occupational Therapist (OT).
