[QUOTE="buddy, post: 493480, member: 12886"] I just turned the internet off because Q was really stuck. He said he has a headache like he has never had in his life. I said, that does not mean you can call me every name and demand to go places or else...etc. He just got revved up and started screaming and when I turned off the internet it all went up 100%. But he never threw anything or touched me! He is now cleaning up the house desperately trying to "make up for" what happened. I know I probably could have calmed this much earlier, but once committed if I don't follow thru he will say... I knew you would do it or whatever. So no matter if he can control it or not, I had to stick thru. But still, if I would have been more thoughtful at first??? I also decided to try 1/2 concerta and 1/2 ritalin to see if I could reduce these swearing sessions that seem more connected to the concerta. Dont think it did any good, lol. OK tomorrow I try the ritalin one more time to compare but in the end we probably have to stick with concerta at school or I am gonna have to run over there and get him every time he refuses medications for them. Why that happens there only??? I think it is part of the bigger picture over there. Just sharing how consequences caused a big blow up, but in the end now, he is calm and doing better...I get so confused sometimes. (and if I thought this would change things in the long run I would gladly stick it out, but I have been thru this so many times and it only helps for the short run and in future every time I walk by the wifi modem he will actually probably panic a little) [/QUOTE]
