[QUOTE="miles2go, post: 263914, member: 6374"] Thank you, flutterby and earthprowler. Earthprowler -- difficult child has been on ablfy for about 6 months now, and yes, his appetite has been prodigious. Flutterby -- thanks for the medication tip. As I understand BiPolar (BP) now, it's a syndrome that covers a wide range of conditions. While his older relatives swing into depression, he never does -- he goes into an obsessive, controlling (ordering teachers around) and manic mode. The psychologist who spent most time with him and who was the first to insist that he is NOT adhd diagnosed his disorder as obsessive (which I understand is a wider condition than just Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) -- he has no Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)-type ideations) and suggested ablfy with later transitioning to (or adding) zoloft type medications. So I don't see "mood swings" as such without medications, just his brain crowded with thoughts and then switching to a crazy zone either from some irritant or fatigue/allergy etc. What dosages of ablfy have you seen/used ?
