[QUOTE="On_Call, post: 54335, member: 3211"] Our difficult child also did not do very well on zoloft and it was removed. I do agree with the others who posted that a bit of a break before starting the concerta might be suggested. Do you feel comfortable saying that to the psychiatrists? They are often (in my humble opinion) too anxious to put a difficult child on a new medication immediately. I had one therapist tell me that it was unusual for a difficult child to leave inpatient at psychiatric hospital on less than 2 or 3 medications. I had to argue while our difficult child was inpatient (along with his outpatient psychiatrist) that we wanted to try difficult child with no medications while he was inpatient and then put him on the least intrusive medication we could find to give that a trial. The inpatient doctor actually wanted to stop difficult child's seroquel cold turkey and then 24 hours later give him something else. That was a tense hour, I can tell you. Good luck to you - I hope it all works out very soon so you, difficult child and your entire family can have some level of stability. {{{hugs}}} [/QUOTE]
