[QUOTE="Kjs, post: 257762"] difficult child was taking lamictal it was not doing anything for him anymore. (he did take this for several years (3 years)..but quit a year ago and restarted last fall. it worked wonderful first time around. He went off of that in January. Took about two months to get him off. therapist is absolutely wonderful. He suggested lexapro, as did psychiatrist. But psychiatrist didn't want two at the same time. psychiatrist wanted Strattera. I asked if we could try one more stimulant without ritalin. The two bad reactions he had was with ritalin. That is when he suggested Adderall or Vyvanse. psychiatrist still had plans to add Strattera to that. Said Strattera would help with anxiety. therapist said he never heard it used for that. I am so scared. I just talked to him. He said he is very sad. He said he doesn't want to take medication. difficult child says it is NOT anxiety, things just don't seem real. I cannot get through to him that anxiety would do this. He has his mind made up. difficult child is on my mind every second of every day. I am so scared. And even more scared because I cannot be there. [/QUOTE]
