[quote=Anonymous]We started meds at 4, and just couldn’t get it right. They made him very weepy and rigid. We tried adding a non stimulant and that was far more helpful for impulsivity. But caused sleep issues. That was at 6. He is 11 now and we’ve just had limited success with meds. His issues seem deeper. He also has LDs and a lower IQ. So who knows. A different brain. The kids I know who do super well on meds don’t have those issues. I’d start a post re medicating my child with a lower iq/other issues. [/quote]
