[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 5087, member: 2423"] Holly, Welcome. I'm glad you found us. I won't pretend to know anything about natural treatments because I don't. I do know about getting the right dxes and matching them with the right medications. If your son has a mood disorder, that is what you treat first -- with a mood stabilizer (Depakote, Lithium, Lamictal, Tegretol and Trileptal). Both Wellbutrin and Adderall can increase anxiety as well as destablize moods. Clonidine is a medication used for sleep and to reduce hyperactivity and impulsivity, but that is an awfully high dose (my son was taking 0.1 mg a few months ago). It sounds to me as if the medications your son is currently on could actually be making the situation worse. What kind of doctor dxing your son? What kind of doctor is treating him? I would highly recommend a re-evaluation by a board-certified child psychiatrist. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
