I have been lurking here for quite some time. Thanks to all for allowing me into your lives and making me feel not so alone. My son has ballooned up to 250 lbs. Any ideas regarding a mood stabilizer that does not promote weight gain? Depakote and seroquel seem to be the culprate. With...

So we started difficult child son on propanolol a couple weeks ago, started at 5mg twice a day for a week and just bumped up to 10mg twice a day starting last night and this morning. I really hope what I am seeing today is a result of the medication and not just a good day. Once his medications were in his system, he...

We saw the psychiatric this past Tuesday. It didnt take much observation to see how impulsive, hyper, inattentive, unfocused, non compliant, defying authority, difficult child is. I told the psychiatric that difficult child is like that all the time and throw in some aggressive meltdowns and explosions every now and again for...

OK - So I need some insight from this wonderfully knowledgeable group! In the last 6 months my son has gone through some radical medication changes. He went off of Depakote, Seroquel, and Effexor - and started Clonidine. Two months ago, this change was complete. It has been 9 years since he has...

End of the year I had to take him to ER, he thought he was dying, couldn't lift his head off the pillow. Only one or two headaches all summer...

difficult child 2 has been on Tegretol XR a week now and I am really wishing we could just fast forward another month because his behavior is not getting any better. Although his math/science teacher said he appears to be less impulsive this week. And he has been able to get his homework done more quickly...

HI Please tell me if you have any experiences with these drugs for your GDG. psychiatrist is considering for my youngest, who continues to have lots of problems with emotional dysregulation and a lot of impulsive behavior. We may need to take him off of Abilify because of weight gain. Amantadine...

Hi, I am happy to have found a place where there are other people who have similar "war" stories!! You can't just talk to anyone about these things....they wouldn't believe you or I have had people say it is just a discipline issue!! Anyway, on to my problem or concern!! My 12 yr old son was...

that we are going to try one more medication. One more and if it doesn't work, Dylan's treatment will continue and finish unmedicated. Luvox - 25 mg tabs. Yeah, I read where they just keep saying on the website "You may have thoughts about suicide when you first start taking an antidepressant...
