[QUOTE="ML, post: 362813"] The tics may be slightly worse but I was told that might abate as he adjusted to the medication. Overall I would say it is a success. The only negative is that he had a meltdown. Everything I asked him was received with resistance. He didn't want to make his bed, or run the vaccuum and reacted with tears of persecution that everyone was being mean to him. We've decided he does much better for husband than for me. He definitely *works* me. One positive side effect is that we had to remind him to eat lunch. We've NEVER had to remind manster to eat a meal, he's normally asking every 15 minutes from 10:00 on "is it time for lunch" lol. I really do appreciate your support during this time. I put off trying a stimulant for so long but so far I think it may be providing great benefit. I will touch base in about a week or so. Keeping fingers crossed that the tics don't get out of hand. So far it's just a very slight increase and I'm hoping it goes away. I have a wee bit of wiggle room and can increase the chlonidine if I need to. [/QUOTE]
