Hi,
I'm looking for information to help my 9 year old DD. She is in third grade in a wonderful elementary school. She is in the GT program and is accelerated for Math/Reading. We do not believe boredom is a factor. She has an IQ of +150, and alaso a dx of ADHD-combination type She takes Intuniv for ADHD, as well as Celexa (20mg) for OCD/anxiety. Her anxiety is very well managed. Our biggest issue is body movement/awareness. Her teachers describe her looking so uncomfortable that it's almost like she's trying to crawl out of her own skin. She is often upside down, leaning, all over the place,spends very little time actually sitting at her desk, and we don't know what to do about it. She is still learning, but we need to figure what is causing the activity increase (seems to be cyclical) as well as how to make her more aware of her body in space and how that is affecting both her and those around her. Any ideas?
