[QUOTE="tiredm0m, post: 84454, member: 4163"] Wow, You guys are great! Thanks for all the support and the tips. We see the doctor Friday and I will have lots of stuff to talk with him about. We took a break from the Concerta over the weekend. That was a HUGE relief to me. I really felt like his behavior was worse on this than without, he seemed more emotional and "intense" plus not able to focus very well. Not to mention the sleep thing. Without the medications, he crashed at 9 pm instead of ??? Over the weekend we went camping and played outside and just enjoyed each other. Sunday we had a relaxing day around the house. Even though he has trouble sitting still and focusing/following directions, at least he seemed more like himself. Now that it's a school day I did go ahead and try the Concerta again. I am having his teacher fill in an hourly behavior/attitude chart this week to see if we can figure out his challenging times of day. We may try the melatonin tonight. Perhaps the Concerta will show greater benefit if he's not massively overtired like he has been. Well have to run - thanks again everyone. Jules [/QUOTE]
