I'm hoping that this grows into a really useful resource to parents and professionals.

Excellent video, Grinity - thanks for sharing. And thank you all for such helpful advice and input. It helps.

One question that I thought was interesting that the initial psychiatrist asked my son that I thought was interesting: Do you have racing thoughts, where you just can't seem to quiet your mind? When my son said he did, the next question was the one I found interesting - are there a lot of different thoughts and ideas fighting for attention where it is hard to pay attention to any of them or is it one thought that just won't stop - if this then this then that, etc.

My son said it was the latter - a thought that led to more what-if thoughts all in a single line.

The psychiatrist said that the multiple thoughts is one indicator of ADHD, the latter not so much.
