[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 334182, member: 2423"] Welcome! I'm glad you found us, but sorry you needed to. The medications could be making him worse. Vyvanse, which treats ADHD, can make anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) and the tics associated with Tourette's Syndrome, much, much worse. Furthermore, Risperdal is NOT first-line treatment for anxiety or Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) (it is supposed to treat tics, however). When did the tics start? Have they gotten better or worse on the Risperdal? Please consider taking him to a new child psychiatrist for a second opinion on the medications. You should find someone who has experience with complicated kids like your son. University teaching hospitals or children's hospitals might be your best bet. Again, welcome. [/QUOTE]
