[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 14528, member: 2423"] MWM, SMD is not widely accepted within the medical community, but it is being studied extensively at the National Institute of Mental Health in Bethesda, Maryland. It is different from BPII because there is rarely an elevated mood but rather chronic irritability in the child, which according to the NIMH researchers is indicative of chronic depression. Some kids with mood disorders can take stimulants. My son is one of them. He takes a low dose, and we watch him like a hawk for mood changes. He took a medication vacation a few weeks ago and begged us to put him back on Focalin XR because he couldn't concentrate in school. [/QUOTE]
