Re: My ADHD son was in ER Saturday..........       12/12/05 10:40 AM Edit Reply Quote Dr. Spice Yamin Reged: 04/15/04 Posts: 3286 Loc: Maryland Oh Barbara I feel for you. I'm suprised that the doctor wouldn't admit him for a psych eval however. I work at a school as a school psychologist intern and we've requested that one of our students be taken to the hospital because he was kicking and screaming and could not seem to settle himself down. They ended up admiting him, however, it didnt' necessarily help. Have you tried having a TEAM or psych evaluation done through the school. That might be helpful. As for the meds, I know many kids need to try two or three things before they finally find a match. HOpefully the behavioral counselor can help you find something that will work. Additionally, Stay strong and be a good advocate for your child. MOre often than not, the children that fall through the cracks are the children who's parents are afraid or ashamed to give accurate records of their child's behaviors. Its natural, but parents tend to underreport on their childrens behaviors, due to the age old stigma against ADHD and other psychological concerns that affect children. You sound like you'rebeing a great advocate for him, and thats fabulous. I see far too many parents on a daily basis that underestimate and are afraid to admit what really happens. Let us know how it turns out. -------------------- Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
