[QUOTE="jal, post: 194559, member: 3477"] My difficult child trialed every stimulant under the sun. They just made him more aggitated and aggressive. He has a diagnosis of ADHD with-mood disorder not otherwise specified. He just recently completed 3 weeks inpatient at phos where we had been doing a medication wash before he went in. He was free of the last of his medications the first week there and they trialed Ritalin. They saw immediately it did not work. The only thing working for him now is an antidepressant called nortriptyline. He is finally off the ceiling, is able to sustain a task for 30-60 min where he couldn't even attend the task for 30 seconds. He has calmed down and become a nicer, happier child. Good luck with the trial! [/QUOTE]
