Wendy,
Hello~ Thanks for writing. My son's father has ADD (not diagnosed), anxiety and he is a binge drinker. My son sees him about once a month.Wierd how I chose someone like that to have a kid with, then again I was out of my mind.
All in all my son appears to be more on the ADD side of things. He used to have terrible fits and then be fine right after. I've heard the difference between ADD and bipolar in a child is that after a fit, a bipolar child's mood is down for a while, while the ADD child perks right back up.
Haven't even considered Ritalin. Mostly I feed him good and tried some supplements.
I know exactly how you feel. I worry about my son a lot.
Amy
