[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 483534, member: 3184"] I cannot help but wonder if he is more Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) not otherwise specified than bipolar disorder not otherwise specified? that could just be me, as I think that overall an autism like diagnosis would carry less negative impact from society than a bipolar diagnosis. I can see he has traits of both, but really? The ones for the Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD) are the most disruptive. But then, how would I know? He has been on a stimulant since 2nd grade, a mood stabilizer since 3rd or 4th, and abilify since 5th grade? Buddy, we will definately have an IEP meeting when he gets back to his regular school, if he ends up there. He could end up at the special middle school for kids with behavior issues. I would like him to be able to finish 8th grade at his school, but it really is dependent upon where he needs to be. We actually were getting an IEP meeting set up before he left, as we need to do that to get him into the high school (one that is more theraputic in nature) that I want him to go to. [/QUOTE]
