[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, can you give us an update? I have a nine year old DS too, and I feel so bad for your son. Also, please do not discount the value of daily exercise in cases like this. Have him run hard/ play hard every day![/quote] Ditto. My 9 year old son gets cranky if he does not play everyday. He also needs to be out in the [u]sun for sometime without sunscreen[/u]. There is a chronic lack of vitamin D in our kids which can lead to depression. New research says that we need the [u]midday sun[/u] (instead of the morning sun as was recommended earlier) for [u]short periods of time[/u] without putting any sunscreen, and that we should not shower for an hour after we sweat in the sun, because some oil on our skin helps us to convert and absorb the vitamin D.
