Does anyone out there have anything good, or bad to say about Adderall? We've got my stepson on Concerta but the doctor is suggesting Adderall in lieu because of the moodiness (!) and beyond
My difficult child's history:
- ADHD
- ODD and now Conduct Disorder
Blended family, BM not too stable, no cohesive structure between families
Scored low on WISC but not sure if it was because of IQ or simply failure to comply with test (the specialists documented this - they have no idea!)
Behaviour - Violent with peers, very jealous of others' accomplishments, vindictive, physically aggressive with peers, usually swings with kids at least three years younger than himself. I would say that he is operating (socially) at the level of about an eight year old. He will be sixteen in March.
His anger (very deep) is extremely concentrated (possibly because of the Ritalin).
