I remember Ray talked about how kids that are hypothyroid don't necessarily have to be lethargic as might be more common in hypo adults, but could even be "hyperactive". This is exactly how I was as a kid. Endless energy, drove adults insane, made teachers cry of exhaustion, doctors asking my mom why she hadn't reached out for help with medicating me etc. I also needed to eat very regularly as missing a meal with just one hour made me really cranky.
Then as puberty hit this all shifted. I became constantly tired, no amount of sleep helped. I remember Ray mentioned kids in that situation often have high adrenaline and cortisol, I think? Is this familar to anyone? I have a kid (9 months) and I recognize the same patterns in her and want to make sure I can help her as best as I can. Already eats a lot of fruit and sugar, dairy etc.
