Hi @Hootbayne
Its frustrating when something is centered around trauma because it can take what seems like an eternity for your child to open up about it. Sometimes I think they leave stuff out or just tell what they think you can handle. It took my daughter about 6 months to tell me the first bit of trauma.
If your gut feeling says he may have something else going on- I think you should explore that too. I have learned through this process that as parents we need to go with our gut. What would it hurt to have him evaluated for ADHD? At least you could rule it out- or possibly change meds.....just a thought.
Hang in there- we are here to listen and support!

It looks like you’re visiting us from a country other than Australia.
We are an Australian service and think you’d benefit more from looking up a similar service in your country.
You are welcome to look around the forums, but please don’t make an account or post, as we can’t offer you the help you may need.
Before you go ahead and post, you should know that we remove non-Australian accounts – not because we don’t want to help or connect with you, but because we may not be able to provide you with the service that you require.
