So, difficult child had a psychiatrist appointment. on Thursday, and difficult child explained how the Concerta was wearing off around 1:30 or 2. And how she was having a hard time getting H.W. done in the evening. So, psychiatrist added 5mg of ritalin in the morning, and 10mg of it at 3. difficult child said she doesn't like the way it makes her feel when it wears off. She said it makes her feel "icky". Is this something that is a side effect that will go away, or is this just what happens when it wears off? She doesn't have that feeling when the Concerta wears off.
The Ritalin seems to help, but she can't eat. She said that her head told she was hungry, but her stomach doesn't want food. Will she become more "tolerant" of the Ritalin, or should I just ask for a Concerta increase instead? Would an increase in Concerta make it last longer?
Any suggestions on what might help?
