[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 199548, member: 2423"] My rule of thumb: Rule out everything physical before assuming it's psychological. Thyroid issues, for example, can make people depressed. A complete neuropyschological evaluation would look at your son's cognitive and pyschological functioning, including but not limited to LDs, ADHD, Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), mood issues, etc. That should be the next step after all the medical stuff is checked out. FWIW, ADHD seems to be the first diagnosis many kiddos here get, but it's often not the last one or the right one. [/QUOTE]
