[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son had terrible side effects from 2 different drugs (became manic, abusive, violent, could not sleep with out sleeping pills, very thin, lost his personality and would not go outside, only wanted to be inside) he was 8. I took him off after 1 year, we are working on using exercise, low carb/ high protein diet, consequences to manage it at this point. He is now 12, we'll see about re introducing medication in a year or 2, if jr high becomes overwhelming.[/quote] OP here-- I'm sorry that your son and your family went through that ordeal. It would break my heart to see my little boy suffer like that. Hopefully, there will be a more suitable medication for your boy if you decide to go that route. [/quote]
