[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 323152, member: 1550"] HI and welcome. Are you comfortable with an ADHD diagnosis? To me it seems like a lot more than ADHD is going on. Who diagnosed him? Has he had a neuropsychologist evaluation? Are there any psychiatric disorders on either side of his genetic family tree? Any substance abuse? Any neurological disorders? How was his early development? Does he know how to socialize? Did he talk on time? Make good eye contact with strangers? Do you feel the medications are making a positive difference or do they just speed him up? I'm wondering if stimulants are the right medication for your child since he gets violent. in my opinion it's not a different issue or anger problems. in my opinion it's probably part of some disorder that has not been diagnosed yet. Possible diagnosis? We are not doctors. We are moms. As a layperson, if this were my child, I'd be wondering about early onset bipolar or some form of high functioning autism. Neuropsychs in my opinion are the best diagnosticians. You may want to do a signature like I did below. This gives us an instant overview of your family so we don't have to keep asking...lol. Glad you found us. [/QUOTE]
