[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Anxiety can be part of ADHD, which can make kids more depressed/anxious. The social isolation probably affects his self esteem and doesn't help him feel less depressed. Does he have an IEP already? You can ask for social skill building goals be added to his IEP, e.g.,: http://www.wrightslaw.com/blog/?p=6721 Does he have any interests? Can he participate in something he likes in a group setting/class? He may not develop close friends, but may feel less isolated.[/quote] He does an IEP. His in FCPS which means his still in elementary school. I will check that out. do you think we should cut off his RITALIN? his only taking 12mg total doing the day [/quote]
