[quote=Anonymous]My son is bipolar 2 and ADHD. Also got triggered by every SSRI he tried with serious self harm and a suicide attempt. It’s a tough combination. Medications that have been tried include abilify, lithium, xyprexa, risperidol, lanectal , and olazapam that I can remember. There were more and sometimes there were more than one at a time. It was incredibly hard to find a doctor who would agree to treat ADHD with stimulants, which were the only thing that worked. He went a few years without but recently restarted. Current medication protocol is an olazapam, trazadone and Vyvanse. The sleep medication is a key component to success but took a lot to get him to agree to it. We use a psychiatric nurse practitioner because we could not find a doctor who would treat the entirety of his issues. [/quote]
