[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Medicate on weekends. He doesn't like feeling out of control any more than you like it. I hear you on your concerns about weight gain. We found that when we medicated every day, her body adjusted faster and the stimulants didn't suppress her appetite as much.[/quote] Agree. Also, stimulants wear off later in the day, so you can adjust your child's meal times to when his appetite is not affected by medication. Also, your child is 9 and is soon going to be a whole lot stronger and do a whole lot more damage. If you haven't been successful in controlling it at this point other than medicating, then you may really want to consider addressing the other concern (loss of appetite) in other ways. [/quote]
