We just got back from the doctor and they have diagnosed nate with a form of bi-polar that is always below the line of stable punctuated by fits of anger not depression and adhd and odd.They would like to start him on lithium,depakote and rispadril(spelling?) as well as a mood stabilizer.They want to change his adderal to concerta.Any info or results from these meds would be welcome.My daughter is on adderal and seems to be doing well but they say with him the adderal will make the anger worse? I am new to all these meds so I do not know what to expect good or bad.Thank you to all the previous posts as well I am a more relaxed now and don't feel so much like I am clinging to a life preserver alone in a very big ocean.Thank you we all have some hope now that we will all be okay.I have lightened up with nate and things seem to calm down sooner once I relaxed.Thanks again!!
