[QUOTE="klmno, post: 239552, member: 3699"] I had heard wellbutrin was different- but given my reaction and that he's my bio-son, I would be afraid to try it. Anyway, no psychiatrist has suggested it at this point. The psychiatrist at the psychiatric hospital actually mentioned abilify but didn't start difficult child on it because he had just switched from depakote to tegrretol (that week) so he just upped the tegretol. Then I mentioned the abilify to psychiatrist today and after we discussed how difficult child has been this past week, he added abilify- mostly for anxiety and difficult child being drowsy and down a lot. He told me to watch and make sure it didn't "up" him too much, but said that was not real common. Oh- blood levels are all good. He had some major blood work done while in psychiatric hospital. They checked for every street drug imaginable and he was negative on all. :) Checked glucose, all the typical stuff plus stuff pertaining to medications. A couple of things were High but not things related to medications- protein and something else- I gave the papers to psychiatrist. [/QUOTE]
