[QUOTE="gcvmom, post: 59992, member: 3444"] My difficult child 2 had a similar problem -- it looked like he was developing a tolerance to stims, and the higher we went the more it acted like water (even at 30mg Focalin... and much higher on Focalin XR, Concerta, you name it). Finally it got to where he was just too tense and anxious, and the other supporting medications seemed to make things work. That's why we stopped everything and he's on this trial of Depakote right now. So far, he's much less aggressive and angry, although the hyperactivity is still there and so is the very poor impulse control. He has moments where things look pretty good, but if he gets bored, watch out! Hope you are able to figure things out for your little guy soon! [/QUOTE]
