[QUOTE="jannie, post: 266500, member: 2074"] Hi Smallworld....can you summarize the article for us (LOL). I'm too tired to read all of those pages... Regarding trying the stimlulant....I thought that kids who have mood disorders can often react negatively when given stimulants and become more irritable and possibly aggressive (this happened to my difficult child 1)...but at least the stimulant is out of your system within a few hours. On three different occasions I tried a stimulant for my difficult child and all three times he presented with negative side effects...therefore it is not for him. My other child is on lamictal and a stimulant and it seems to work... I do wonder with summer coming if you can hold off on the stimulant and get the ms on board and by the time school starts you may be able to give it a try?? I wonder if it's possible to trial the stimulant for just a few days to know if you possibly see benefit...and then make the decision about continuing or trying to get her more stable. Lots of decisions; no real answers.....I'm really GLAD to hear she has been doing well over the past couple of weeks !!! [/QUOTE]
