I have a close adult relative who pushed for an ADHD diagnosis so they could get Adderall. They prefer this method of losing weight. I can't imagine why anyone would want to fake a condition - especially when this type of thing will stick with you the rest of your life.

My favorite cousin was diagnosed with adhd at a very young age....all the drugs he took, and he still jumped out of the second story window, cause he wanted to play outside one night. They found out later that he was allergic to red dye, and that it probabally caused most of his....violent reactions....Violence via Koolade...... Some times behavior problems are caused buy physical difincianciy.... Some times not. it is NOT new for doctors or schools to turn to this diagnosis, our school do not and can not truely deal with special needs children. Its not easy. 20 - 40 kids.... how is that natural?... its not.... So much more i want to say, but i'm sleepy, good night all, Hope all life is going well for you.

It is pricey but it will help you get the answers you need. We have issues with rage, temper, attention spans, and hyperactivity as well and although ADHD is a component it is not the underline disorder. We deal with Sensory Integration as part of our main disorder and it seems to surface as the most prominent. We have seen great results with Risperdal, an anti-psychotic medication that helps to reduce rage and aggression in children with autism. I totally understand your frustration though...while watching him on TV I saw a lot of AJ...but I have to admit that AJ is about 10 times worse so you are lucky. :) Kadi,
