[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 15901, member: 1550"] he's mean to you because he's sick. Maybe he's on medications that wear off in the evening. Mood disordered kids tend to get worse at night and if he's on any ADHD medications, that could be making him worse, not better. That includes Straterra. Antidepressants also can wreak havoc with mood-disordered children. You don't list his medication--with all those diagnosis. he must be taking something. ADHD medications even make kids with only ADHD emotional at night because of the letdown, but with the mood disorders, I'd be leery about even using any. I wouldn't take his comments or behavior personally. I'd think of him as a sick child who needs help controlling himself. Hugs. Hang in there. It takes time, but you'll get it figured out. [/QUOTE]
