Hi
I am new to this board my 7 year old son currently has regular visits to ADHD clinic although they haven't yet diagnosed him with ADHD following all my research I am pretty certain that this is what the outcome will be. My question is that he doesn't tend to loose his temper or get angry or violent, however he does tend to get very overwhelmed, especially at school, and will often just burst into tears, not just a few tears, he wil get really emotional and has to take time out just so he can calm himself down, when I ask him why he got so upset he doesn't know. I can't seem to find any information to inidcate that this is a charactoristic of ADHD so just wondering if anyone else has a similar experience with their child.
Thanks for reading
