[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thank you to those who provided helpful resources.  He likely also has anxiety, so meds are not a good choice.  He is above grade level in reading and math, so not struggling.  I will look into testing for over summer break.[/quote]
Great job making this all about you and your convenience![/quote]

That’s in 10 weeks.  He is exceling at school (in 1st grade and outperforming those redshirted).  I have received no concerns from the teacher, so yeah it can wait until June so I don’t have to pull him out of school.  You all are too much.

Your headline is about growing impatient and your OP talks about losing your mind.  That sounded like things were pretty serious because of issues at home, not because of school.  So forgive us if we thought things were worse than they really are.

But even if they aren't that bad right now, I'd still recommend not to wait for a diagnosis.  It can take a while to arrange testing, get the report, find a doctor or therapist you like and find effective treatment.  Meanwhile, things can go south in a hurry.   [/quote]
