[QUOTE="Steely, post: 60152, member: 3301"] What about a trampoline? My difficult child loved his, and the jumping seemed to calm him as well as release energy. Also swinging can be soothing, as well playing in a sandbox. All of those activities release that kinesthetic energy, and seem to relax the body. You could have his consequence for hyper or aggressive behavior be "outside" time instead of running - and maybe that would eliminate some of his drama. I think I would also make it be "his" outside time - no siblings around to exacerbate things - and maybe he could find some peace just playing alone. Can you keep an eye on him from a window while playing card or something with the other kids inside, so that he can really connects with himself in his outside time? I think it sounds like a good plan to wean him off of the 2 medications. My son just went off an anti-depressant, and as long as you do it slowly, you will not see too many of the physical symptoms.
