[QUOTE="crazymama30, post: 353113, member: 3184"] My difficult child is on a stimulant, a mood stabilizer and an atypical antipsychotic. First he was put on the stimulant, then off the stimulant and on the mood stablizer untill stable, added back in the stimulant, then added the ap. I think that 54mg of Concerta seems like a large dose, and stims are known to make anxiety worse. Did you see his behaviors get better or worse with the Concerta? I am not a doctor and sometimes medications that look funny are done a way for a reason, so I do not want you to take what I say as gospe. My difficult child and yours have very different diagnosis's, so my experience is different than yours. I think I remember that risperdal, an ap, is commonly used with asperger's to reduce things like outbursts and aggression. Hopefully someone who is more familar with aspergers will be along shortly.
