[QUOTE="Isla, post: 654770, member: 18941"] My daughter (now 34) was diagnosed at 13 with ADD Inattentive type. She was prescribed stimulant medication which seemed to help her concentration. I wasn't aware at the time but she began to take massive doses along with Valium (to calm her down). This made her very aggressive and she had seizures due to sudden withdrawal (of the Benzodiazapam). 20 years on and anything triggers an extreme verbal attack. I have only recently learned she has been self medicating again (I was of the opinion she had stopped taking stimulant medication at the age of 19). She uses a months supply of stimulant medications with Valium over the short course of a couple of days. Her extreme moods perplexed us, but now they make sense. Is it possible your son is doing a similar thing? [/QUOTE]
