My son is 4. He takes medication for ADHD. He also has ODD. I think it's more than that though. He's becoming worse. Now he doesn't want to eat, which could be a side effect of the medication... but he can go DAYS without touching food and still have energy... he's crabby, all the time. he's very preoccupied with certain toys, but he's not autistic. he's all in people's faces all the time. he repeats himself. he's scared of pretty much everything. sometimes he has conversations with himself. he has no interest in the alphabet or numbers or anything like that. my 2 year old is farther ahead mentally. my oldest seems intelligent, but it's like his intelligence is 'leaving' him. babysitters complain. grandparents won't watch him anymore... and i'm beginning to feel overwhelmed myself. he sees a psychiatrist, and he goes to counseling, but sometimes i wonder is the situation ever going to get better??? what should i do? and please give me some advice on what it could possibly be other than adhd and ODD.
