So difficult child was on 7 mg through the second half of the school year and things were great. Then at the beginning of summer, due to circumstances I dont want explain in a public forum (pm me if u like), he was lowered to 5mg for 2.5 weeks, and meltdowns, out of control misbehavior started happening more and more. Then back to 7mg but meltdowns didn't all go away and now after 3 weeks on 7 mg he got a strike 2 at the camp -- chasing kids until restrained by several counselors. Meanwhile a couple of weeks ago psychiatrist said up to 10mg, but I was holding out hoping that 7mg will work like before.
do you see this happen, when too low a dose will destabilize things so that the previous dose doesnt work anymore? Anyway, I upped it to 10mg and hope he can stay in camp else things are going to blow up pretty bad.
