[QUOTE="Alisonlg, post: 31709, member: 2894"] Welcome to the board! I'm sure we've all been down that road...the frustration and feeling of being at the end of our rope...it comes with the unique job of parenting a difficult child. If the medications don't seem to be working, when is the last time you medication with your son's Psychiatrist and reviewed the medications and discussed trying something different? As busywend mentioned, stimulants often aren't a good match for a Bi-Polar child because they can induce mania. I assume an actual Psychiatrist (one with an MD) diagnosed and is treating your son? As for parenting our uniquely challenging children, a great book to pick up is "The Explosive Child." You'll hear it mentioned quite often around here and it will give you some great insight into understanding and dealing with our children. :::Hugs::: [/QUOTE]
