[QUOTE="Janna, post: 111690, member: 2737"] that may be working for your kid. What do you do when you've tried them all? [img]:hammer:[/img] Dylan's hyperactivity and impulsivity are skyrocketing. We had him 6 full days over the holiday, and every person that came in contact with him said he seemed "10x worse", "ready to jump out of his skin", "couldn't understand him because he was flying from subject to subject"...you get the point. He's still on the 25 mg. of Luvox, I don't think it's doing anything, but I don't think it's really supposed to be either, at such a low dose. I think psychiatrist is just making sure he doesn't have any negative reactions. I haven't seen any. But, I don't think Luvox is going to help with ADHD stuff. I wish you guys could all meet him for a few hours. You would see. He's 100x more than an ADHD kid. I just can't get it here, in type, how bad it is. So, anyway ~ I know all the typical stuff. We've tried them all LOL! How about the odd ball stuff? And what about the "chill out" pills like Xanex? What was the other one our old psychiatrist wanted to try? Ativan? Something with an A that everyone said was addictive. Hmm...can't find my notes. What about Valium? I'm seriously serious (haha) about finding him something to calm him down. I don't know that the current Residential Treatment Facility (RTF) psychiatrist will be in agreement, but if he can't compromise, we may have to find other options as far as psychiatrist's go. Here's the list he's tried so they don't get brought up: Tenex. Clonodine. Ritalin. Metadate. Concerta. Dexadrine. Adderall. Strattera. Topomax. Tegretol. Abilify. Seroquel. Risperdal. Zyprexa. Geodon. Depakote. Lithium. Wellbutrin. I'm probably missing a couple. I'm tired. And he's tried some of these more than once, and I'm fully uninterested in trying any of these again. I'm only looking for suggestions, so that I can go read up on some stuff online. I know nobody here is a doctor, but I know there's medications out there that can possibly help my son that I'm unfamiliar with . I did mention Propranolol or whatever it is LOL, psychiatrist said nope. And Lamictal, psychiatrist said nope (but I dunno that he even needs a mood stabilizer at this point). I'm telling ya, he just needs a "CHILL OUT" pill. Honestly LOL! Thanks ahead. [/QUOTE]
