Hi all, we visited the psychiatrist today. We are trying Imiprimene, which I'd wanted b4 we wasted our time (and difficult child's health) on Prozac and Zoloft, but you know how you have to jump through hoops. I hope this works.

Miss KT just called. She says the yelling used to happen all the time when she was little, but then it went away. She says it makes her feel like she's in trouble, so I asked if if she'd done anything she wasn't happy about, thinking maybe it was a conscience-type thing. No, just lots of...

My difficult child was diagnosed at 3 yrs old with ADHD. They put him on Adderall since he was very small for his age and that was the only thing that came in a small enough dose.
