[QUOTE="NAFEKOH, post: 101152, member: 4361"] Our child is 8 years old and is a boy. I am not for sure what kind of doctor first diagnosed him but I do know that before he came to our home he as in a psychiatric hospital. He attends a cou8nseling session once a week for a hour and is on seroquel-200mg twice daily,vyvanse-50mg once daily,tenex-1/2mg dailym and lithium-450mg daily. The vyvanse is new, he was taking adderall twice a day but I am not sure of the doseage.Some of his behaviors are showing a little improvement but it still seems like that no matter what we do he constantly wants to argue with us. He doesn't want to listen to anyone including his teacher at school. He constantly disrupts his class during the day and at home he does fairly well accept for getting ready for school in the mornings, taking a bath at night(this usually turns into at least an hour ordeal) and then getting him to actually go to bed is another battle. We have tried taking things away from him as punishment, also we have tried timeout, early bedtime, we tried the sticker thing so he would actually have a visual that he had done something wrong but it just dooesn't seem to phase him. When we take something from him he always says that we are stealing his stuff or we are hurting him. He has also started being a little destructive with things around the house and of course he doesn't accept responsibility for anything he does. I think I could go on all night but i'm sure you have heard and seen everything I could say. [/QUOTE]
