Carson is 9. Dignosed ADHD at age 4. Mood disorder at age 8. There are more things going on--we just havent "found" them yet.
Was on Metadate and Abilify for aprox. 6 months. Recently developed a tic (or habit?) of rolling his neck. Sorta like you would roll your neck to "pop" it. I noticed the tic before his last appointment.
His medications were changed to Intuniv and Respirdone on Aug 30th. Doctor thinks it is a tic from the medications. How long should it take before it goes away? I know his medications may take up to 3 weeks to "kick in". He has been feeling a LOT of stress at school (school has been in session for 3 weeks)--I know stress can make the tics worse.
Anyone else have a kiddo suffering from tics?
