[QUOTE="agee, post: 335962"] Sooo...difficult child started back on a stimulant yesterday after about 5 weeks without and he is WIDE OPEN this morning, and has been since 4:30. By WIDE OPEN I mean a mile-a-minute-talking, making noises, running around the house, constant bugging us, bugging the dog, etc. acting like a nut. I can tell this is going to be a long, hard Sunday for all of us. Is this mania? It's like him in typical hyper mode times about 3. If he keeps it up I don't see how I can send him to school tomorrow. He is taking Vyvanse, at about half the dose that he was on before. It didn't have any effect yesterday. We also went up on the Risperdal - again, didn't seem to have an effect but since new doctors. didn't call back on Friday when we were supposed to talk I just went ahead with the plan they'd mapped out. Oh - and here's another piece of this - we haven't met with psychiatrists about conclusions from visit last week, but they did mention depakote and lithium. Am I correct in thinking they may be thinking bipolar? On Tuesday they said Pervasive Developmental Disorder (PDD). Also, I don't know if we should keep with the Vyvanse in case it triggered this. Aaaaaaggggh! A [/QUOTE]
