[QUOTE="cassiemoun, post: 417561, member: 11557"] If you do want to give medications a try, you could ask your psychiatrist about Intuniv. It's a nonstimulant medication recently approved for use with ADHD. It also helps with aggression and angry outbursts. For us, it doesn't have the terrible side effects that the stimulants had. It's only side effect (that we noticed) is sleepiness, but that gets better after about 2 weeks. My son is pretty much the opposite....good at school and VERY challenging at home. [/QUOTE]
