[QUOTE="MyHrt31, post: 236867, member: 6666"] Well I sure am glad I found this place. My son's psychiatrist is amazing, don't get me wrong. She's very thorough. She did a complete history on him before even trying to prescribe anything for him. She interviewed the both of us and got myself and his teachers to fill out these forms to help her pinpoint a diagnosis. In the past, my son's psychiatrists have pulled out a prescription pad within the first five minutes we are in the office. My problem is, they ask me "What are YOU doing to do about it" "This behavior disturbs me" "He is being manipulative" "You need to do something about this before he gets older". I hear this a lot and I am trying the best I can. Its so frustrating! He's never had an EEG before. Do you think that maybe this could show us something that has never been brought up before? I understand that a lot of it is behavior modification but his temper is so bad for a 9 year old. He's had to be restrained numerous times because he's tried to hit and kick teachers. I don't feel this is normal and I don't think any amount of behavior modification is going to help him. Is it wrong of me to rely on medications for these issues or do you think that behavior modification can actually help these problems?
