[QUOTE="Josie, post: 43474, member: 1792"] This is your celiac kid, right? I read this thinking it sounds like my difficult child who acts this way if she has gluten or casein. Are you sure he is not getting any gluten in his food? I wouldn't have believed it before it happened to me, but I react to even someone touching my food after touching something with flour. And my reaction (depression, irritability, fatigue) from such a tiny amount lasts for 2 1/2 weeks. Are you sure he isn't getting traces of gluten? If you are, then you might want to try eliminating casein, too. When my daughter has any casein (even a trace), she becomes mean. It's even worse than her reaction to gluten. Many people with celiac disease also have to give up milk. Check out [url="http://www.glutenfreeforum.com"]http://www.glutenfreeforum.com[/url] if you haven't already and do a search on behaviour and mood. There are lots of stories about of parents observing their children's behaviour changes as well as adults describing their own experiences. I'm not saying there isn't something else going on, but it is very possible you can clean up his diet and he'll be fine with no need for medications. [/QUOTE]
