[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am so sorry that you are having such a difficult time with your son. It must be exhausting and overwhelming. The wonderful thing is that you are in the process of having him diagnosed, which should help determine an appropriate intervention for him. Have you sought any type of assistance with a behavioral intervention specialist? Behavior interventionists are able to come into the home, assess the situation, and provide an intervention program or strategies to help manage your son's behavior. Sometimes an integrative approach of using both behavioral intervention and medication can be effective. [/quote] +1 Behavioral therapy plus medication was very helpful for us. 4 and 1/2 may be too yoing to medicate, but you can start behavioral intervention anytime and add medication later if indicated.[/quote]
