You should understand that your son is probably going through a tough time. I have ADHD and my older sister is bipolar. I think you might want to talk to your childs docotor for information about other docotors and/or treatment options.

take your son to a pediatrician who know about such things, everyone has these conditions if you go to the wrong doctor, talk to teachers, social workers at school, bipolar is a strong diagnosis for such a young person. get a few 2nd opinions. good luck.

you can do that or you can just go see a therapist and give strick instructions that you will only use medication as a last resort. They have to honor your wishes. My niece has ADHD and is not on Meds...she's doing pretty well.
