what kind of mood disorder? my son is diagnosed with Bipolar NOS (early onset), as well as OCD, GAD and ADHD. He's on Depakote, a small dosage, to help level out his moods and stabilize him. He also takes Adderall XR, again a small dosage, to help him with his ADHD at school. He's also been in therapy for two years now, which has helped tremendously.
