[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 90584, member: 805"] In my uneducated opinion, and just as a mom, his behavior seems way off the add scale. If it were my son, I would discontinue the concerta and call the doctor. Especially if his behavior has gotten worse or the aggression has increased the last couple days on the medication. Concerta is not a medication intended to "get his aggression under control". It is for focus, impulsivity, and hyperactivity issues. Slitting wrists is not a symptom of add. I must tell you though, that concerta was a medication that my son could not be off for awhile and then go right back on without adjustment. He was a more anxious and his fuse was shorter the first day or so. But his additude, his words and actions are disconcerning and lead me to guess there is more than add going on. Sharon [/QUOTE]
