[QUOTE="justtotallyspent, post: 379659"] They are prescibing aderral, it was a specialist from CHEO's mental health dept. that did his assessment. He specializes in children with ADHD. The school is also working up an IEP for him to help he get some one on one help with writing which he struggles with. He is in counselling with a child phychologist that meets with him and us and him to give him an outlet to express what he is feeling. We have been in couselling and meet with a phych for about a year and a half. It is ADHD/ODD diagnosis with CD tendensies. We are working on only dealing with the ADHD in hopes that it will help alievate the other symptoms. As for a neurophych we are on a long waiting list that we couldn't even get on without a prior assessment. The options are very limited in this area, and more limited due to financial restrictions. So hear we wait again in hopes that atleast with medication and continued counselling things will get better. They finally rushed everything because in our last meetings with counsellers he was showing his severe aggression towards them and talking about how he can hurt others and animals because no one feels pain. They were worried because he has been in trouble 3 of the first 4 days of school for aggression towards students and teachers and then also with our counseller, so I guess it could be a blessing in disguise atleast they did something instead of just wait until with can get you in somewhere.............
