[QUOTE="totoro, post: 46707, member: 3155"] What "medications" did he suggest? I was always fearful when someone said medications early on with us. We went to one guy who said, I feel she is Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD)-not otherwise specified ,he didn't spend any time with her and he said she needs Risperdal!!! He was a therapist!!!! If it were me I would want to know what we were medicating for, medicating your child is a big step and one not to take lightly. You should be with someone you trust. My difficult child 1 most likely will be medicated for her life, so for us we want and wanted as many answers as possible. Don't be afraid to be pushy, you can do it without sounding like a know it all... you are your child's advocate! and research.....lots of disorders sound alike and have overlapping symptoms... journal, and video if possible, and write a parent report.
