[QUOTE="AmyH, post: 142114, member: 4955"] I just feel like he listened to me more than any other doctor so far. Most of them think he is just ADHD. We had an ADHD evaluation done about 6 weeks ago and the lady asked him several questions and he did some computer testing and all the papers that the parents fill out. been there done that too many times. Well come results time all she could say is that he had alot more going on than ADHD but when we got the written report all it said is that there is a 74.56 in 100 chance that he has an attention problem. Well, there is a waist of money. I could of told you that. He has been good for the past couple of days, but that is they cycle with him. He is still hearing the voice, which I am not sure if the psychiatrist believes or not. He has anywhere from 1-4 weeks of pretty good days. Just the usual not being able to focus, usual pre-teen stuff. Then bam, we are all depressed then all happy then the roller coaster starts. Up and down for several days to weeks. Then crash and we are good again. I my self am on Abilify but I take 20mg. The psychiatrist said he would deff. need to be adjusted but he did not want to change everything at once. As far as the Concerta, we have been on it before and had the same issues as with the Ritalin, but the psychiatrist thinks that the dosages are just not high enough. Me I am so totally confused.
