He is taking Adderral and it has been working really well for him. I havent seen any changes with him since he has been on his medicine. We go to his doctor about once a month to make sure nothing major has changed with him. He is the only child and right now we are living with relatives and we share a room but he does have his own bed. i got a book called the strong willed child that i had started reading and i did look into the book sos but my library doesnt have that book. I can easily get frustrated with him and I know that doesnt help and I've tried reading different books and speaking with different doctors looking for answers.

   Sounds like you are having some trouble getting some of the books I suggested.  You might try this web site for more ideas.  I prefer books cause its a lot easier to just pick up the book, but it does sound like you need more ideas.  Scroll down through this site as several things are mentioned.   http://www.ncpamd.com/adhd.htm#Attention%20Deficit%20Disorder%20in%20Children%20and%20Adolescents

  If this works for you, I can recommended several more sites hopefully aimed at kids.

Keep working at it.  And make sure that as you get help for him, you are also taking steps to take care of yourself.  It sounds like you have a lot going on right now in your life besides the challenges with your child.  Remember that children sense stress and know when something is wrong.  Have you tried contacting any agencies that offer family support?  The agency I work for offers support to the whole family when they are struggling with different issues.  There is a lot of help out there if you go look for it.
