[QUOTE="smallworld, post: 90579, member: 2423"] If he's seeing and hearing things (hallucinations), he needs to be on an antipsychotic (AP) first and foremost. Some common APs are Risperdal, Seroquel, Zyprexa, Abilify and Geodon, although I don't know if they're called the same thing or you have them available in Australia (Marg can help us with that). APs will also help with aggression and anxiety. by the way, Concerta can make hallucinations worse, which is why he may be talking about all the "chatter" for the last day or so. Obviously we're not doctors, but if this were my child, I'd take him off Concerta. This child really needs to be seen by a child psychiatrist. Can that be arranged through mental health? [/QUOTE]
