Avatar f tn Laughing at parents when the child senses that the parent has "had it" - is not ADHD. It is more normally a sign that the child is winning and the parent is not. You can get some good quick information on what ADHD is by clicking on the blue Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder link at the top of this page. You might also want to post to the child behavior forum and ask the members for help with any specific things that your child is doing that is driving you nuts.
Avatar m tn It might also not be ADHD if the behaviors occur in the classroom but nowhere else. A child who shows some symptoms would not be diagnosed with ADHD if his or her schoolwork or friendships are not impaired by the behaviors.[30] Even if a child’s behavior seems like ADHD, it might not actually be ADHD; careful attention to the process of differential diagnosis is mandatory. Many other conditions and situations can trigger behavior that resembles ADHD.
557869 tn?1216406945 My 7 year old has ADHD, CP, hearing loss and a lot of other problems. The reason I'm posting is he thinks it is funny when he gets in trouble with me. He laughs in my face. I don't know what to do. He doesn't laugh when someone else is scolding him, but when I do it, he thinks it is hilarious. What can I do? It makes me want to cry.

Avatar m tn He has been on resperidone for 11/2 week showing only ADHD and ODD symptoms. He is driving us crazy but not showing any signs of anger or aggression. We then introduced ADHD medication, guanfacine, evening only. Second day he started exhibiting more aggressive, angry behavior. I plan to call the Doctor on Monday, but wanted to know if anyone else had similar situation?
Avatar n tn i am not a dr but it doesnt sound like adhd. i have adhd and i was diagnoised unfortunately at age 34 back in the days they were clueless on what adhd was. do you feed him alot of sugar or addtive colors and dye food. try gettng him evaluated for adhd. there are several searches you can do yourself to see if he has it but your best bet is to get him evaluated for it. i hope that helps. usually adhd is related to poor focus, concentration hyperactivity, restlessness and i can go on.
Avatar n tn The doctor on that site will give you honest opinion about what to do with his behavior. ADD/ADHD symptoms usually show up both at home and at school.
Avatar n tn Your son may well display ADHD, but it is important to arrange a thorough evaluation and not rush too quickly to the diagnosis. The on-line surveys can be useful tools to see if a person might display symptoms typical of ADHD, but a thorough assessment will consider a child's medical history, family history, current functioning at home and in school, possible alternative explanations for the symptoms identified on the surveys, etc.
Avatar n tn I had a school counselor who would try to diagnose me with everything (maybe you have bpd, maybe you have OCD, maybe you have ADHD) and then when I told her the diagnosis I had from my doctor (PTSD, psychosis) then she would try to dismiss it and re-diagnose me. She would also tell other students my very specific problems and then get angry / yell at me when I told her I don't want medication. This has stopped a year ago, but I found out she does the exact same thing to other students.
1950518 tn?1333219865 Hi.. I've a 3 year old boy who is quite clever.. He started talking and walking early and met all his milestones ok.. he's always been very social from he was just a baby and has good friends... but some of his behaviours people have commented on and I just wanted some other people's opinions so... he's always been VERY hyper.. he's extremely fidgety and never sits still or sits down he has to be standing or running or climbing shaking about whatever... he's very clumsy..
Avatar n tn The Risperdal no longer controls his behaviors; he is laughing hysterically all the time, running, is violent and teachers are afraid of him. He is non-verbal and is a large boy for his age of 9 years and is entering puberty. The medicine does apparently help him sleep, but that is the only benefit we are now seeing. Thank you for your reply. This discussion is related to <a href='http://www.medhelp.
Avatar f tn I was wondering the same thing. My hubby got me laughing hard the other noght and I had to leave the room cause I was hurting so amd he wouldnt stop being crazy.
Avatar m tn And I don't mean because you found something funny about it, it just happens for no reason at all.
1330108 tn?1333677304 Is anybodies little one laughing yet? I can't wait for that milestone!
Avatar f tn Nothing wrong about it.
327385 tn?1378360731 Sounds like your talking about my daughter, and she has ADHD. They started her off on Adderal XR, but she is now on Vyvance (sp). She did and does all the things you have listed, including the stealing and not knowing why. Your best bet is to try and find a peds doctor that specializes in ADD/ADHD. If she is found to have ADHD, so of the things she does might not go away, like the stealing.
940946 tn?1245940217 One of the other problems I do have is my anxiety... it is so bad and anxiety attacks are no laughing matter these days. Is there something that can help with both? See my mom has anxiety and she is on Welbutran, and my little brother is ADHD, Bi-polar and manic with asburgers, and he was currently put on Welbutrant as well and it has been working wonders for him. Should I ask about this medication at my appointment? Or are there other medications I should ask about?
Avatar f tn I hate to tell you this, but it sure sounds like pregnancy to me.
Avatar m tn By the way, I have seen several studies that show that sleep apnea can produce ADHD like symptoms. In fact, there have been several posters on here that have had sleep apnea, been treated and their daytime behaviors definitely changed. Has anybody ever commented about you snoring or breathing loud at night? "Regardless of type, an individual with sleep apnea is rarely aware of having difficulty breathing, even upon awakening.
Avatar f tn //www.medhelp.org/forums/ADD---ADHD/show/175 and let me know what he is on and the dose of it. Has the dose ever been adjusted at all by his doc. In other words, did the doc start off low and slowly increase? Oh, and Mark has an excellent question ...what kind of a doctor are you seeing. finally on his soft voice. Is it all the time or only at home. Has it only been this way for this year or was it like this last year? How old is he, what grade is he in and when is his birthday?
Avatar f tn In short, adhd symptoms. There was a reason why you started Vyvanse, and as you are now stopping it...those reasons are coming back. If you have not done so....you need to read up on Ankylosis Sponilytis. It is a condition that will slowly get worse. And I am not sure that a muscle relaxer is recommended treatment. See - https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/ankylosing-spondylitis/diagnosis-treatment/drc-20354813 . And a muscle relaxer is certainly only short term treatment.
Avatar f tn But when inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsive behavior are the norm for a child, it may be a sign of ADHD. ADHD can lead to problems at home and at school, with family, teachers, and peers, so it’s important to identify the symptoms and get help.
