[QUOTE="house of cards, post: 199277, member: 2005"] I hope you can find a more solid diagnosis and a psychiatrist you have confidence in, I know it isn't any fun trying to find a new one, at least I hate it. I don't know if you will ever be 100 % sure of a diagnosis thou. I have a 21 yo that was diagnosed ADHD when he was 7 or 8, every year there would be reports about how over diagnosed ADHD was (every Sept.), and every year I would question myself and what I was doing giving him ritalin. Now I am going through the same only deeper with my 10 yo. The medications can have huge side effects but I don't think we could go on without them. I am so waiting for the time when these brain illnesses can be diagnosed with a reg medical test, I want it to be black and white and I don't want a diagnosis dependant on only my reports of behavior. I believe research will get there soon...but not soon enough for me. [/QUOTE]
