[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, your child's meds need to be re-adjusted. This does not sound like someone who is on a more or less correct mix of meds. [/quote] This is false. ADHD Meds do NOT improve flexibility or emotion regulation, or if they do it is at minimum. Potentially you could consider than an SSRI might. But it also may not. These are very hard problems to medicate for. [/quote] ADHD meds are not the only psychotropic medications. Antipsychotics worked really well for my explosive child. Yes it's hard, yes you need a psychiatrist not a general pediatrician, but the pp's recommendation for adjusting meds was a good one.[/quote] I am the PP who mentioned adjusting meds. Exactly. You need a reputable pediatric psychiatrist. And even then it's a process of trial and error with dosages, supplementary meds, side effects. But it can be done. [/quote]
