[QUOTE="nvts, post: 119603, member: 3814"] Hi! Just got a call from difficult child 1's school. He's on another rage. Cursing, running, freaking out, his para was worried that he may have a couple of bruises on his arms because he was so out of control that they had to restrain him so he wouldn't hurt himself trying to escape.:angry: I'm at my wits end with this. Since I joined the board, you guys have talked about some stims causing anger/outburst issues with various diagnosis'. I have an appointment. with his psychiatrist in about 2 weeks and would like to question the medications. :nerd: He's currently taking 54 mgs. of Concerta and 25 mgs. of Strattera. While he's less "hyper" he's been the most angry kids known to man. The Strattera was added to help his anxiety. What I'd like to know from you guys is not only if you've seen a change for the better once you stopped the stims but what you replaced them with so that I can research options and have an intelligent conversation with the psychiatric. I like his psychiatrist, but she tends to wait for me to take the lead.:yeah: Any suggestions will be taken as exactly that, so don't worry that you'll be misunderstood. There's just so much dirt out there that you don't know which way to turn. I'd rather have a friend (you guys) tell me directions to look rather than rely on the Web. Thanks for any info you can give me. Beth :winking: [/QUOTE]
