[QUOTE="CCRidr2, post: 41653, member: 3714"] My difficult child is also 9 and on Focalin XR 10 mg and had the exact same problem at about 5-6pm in the evening.....we have added 2.5 mg regular Focalin in the evening and this helps calm the "I hate you" mode. Sleeping has always been a problem for our difficult child and this afternoon dose doesn't seem to make a difference, good or bad. We also liked the Focalin for the same reason as you, he is a normally bubbly child and the other medications seemed to make him a zombie, which is something we never wanted. The Focalin seems to help keep his personality shining through while keeping his behavior manageable. Hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
