[QUOTE="TheOnlyMe, post: 224950, member: 4515"] My son was diagnosis ADHD in the mid 90's, never could get the right medications. In 2005, he had his first hospitalization and was diagnosis BP1 and taken off all stimulants until the moods swing could be stabilized. It took two years to get the right cocktail and it was an experience I would not wish on anyone! Then in July of 07, they thought we had him stabilized so they added the stimulant back, I wont go into the details but the end result is even though his ADHD is severe as his BiPolar (BP), HE CAN NOT take a stimulant for his ADHD! I have found several articles online in regards to this but it is a new discovery. He went through every possible stimulant in 13 yrs of TX with a minimum of ten to a maximum of 20 office referrals in each school year! I would suggest talking to your doctor about the incident. Alot of symptoms of BiPolar (BP) and ADHD are co-existent in each diagnosis. Best wishes with your current situation! [/QUOTE]
