>>My son is also very nervous, high anxiety, a "worry wart", is constantly paranoid and has mood changes/depression.
Hi,
I'm not clear on your son's symptoms. Is he like this normally, or on stims? If so....
I'm no expert on ADD but are you sure that is the corrrect diagnosis? Has he been having these symptoms for all that time?
Is he possibly bipolar? Often, especially in childhood, ADD and BP are very similar.
Has he been to more than one pdoc?
I hope you can get him on the right meds soon.
What, may I ask were his symptoms when you first sought help three years ago?
Take care,
Amy
