[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, don’t go to your pediatrician for a diagnosis.  You need a full neuropsych so you can see exactly what’s going on. I’m willing to bet you will find ADHD ( it’s all called that now.  There’s no such thing as ADD anymore. You’re either ADHD primarily inattentive, primarily hyperactive or combination.  There may even be some other mild learning disabilities.[/quote]

I was the PP who suggested and was diagnosed by the Pediatrician.  Why do you not suggest a pediatrician for this?[/quote]

This is the pp who said no pediatrician.  Ours wanted to do a checklist and then declare the kid had ADHD.  It just is never really that simple, and I would hate for OP to only get part of the picture.  Our ped does not specialize in SN's.  They do the regular ped stuff.  They do have SN clients but who were diagnosed elsewhere.  At the very least the OP needs to go to a developmental pediatrician to start.  But, I still strongly suggest a full neuropsych so that if there is more than just ADHD going on it will be noted right away.[/quote]
