[quote=Anonymous]I agree that this sounds really serious, to the point where absence seizures should be investigated. OP, you really need to see a pediatrician, ideally one with background in ADHD. They're not going to hold you at gunpoint and force medication down his throat! But they might be able to help you investigate the possibility of seizures, and other helpful things like checking for sleep apnea or a sleep cycle problem. You owe it to your kid to try to alleviate this, because untreated ADHD will have serious consequences for every area of his life as he grows older. And this does sound like a particularly serious case. Like he needs to go to a special needs private school.[/quote]
